Rich editor mist gebruikersnamen met umlauten

[thoka (Thomas Kalka)]

We have umlauts enabled in usernames, which works fine in markdown, but not in the new composer:

Thanks for the report. We’ll take a look!

I was able to repro after configuring the following settings:

1. configuring these settings to allow some unicode characters in usernames
   • unicode_usernames
   • allowed_unicode_username_characters (e.g. [äöüßÄÖÜẞ])
2. create a user using one of those chars in their username
3. try to mention them in a post using the new rich text editor

We should double check that mentions for group names w/ unicode characters work too when we fix this.

Om te blijven dat de zogenaamde Zweedse o, å en Å, ontbreken in die lijst. En toch kan het gewoon een voorbeeld zijn, en å/Å wordt geaccepteerd — nooit getest (voornamelijk omdat alle Finnen hebben geleerd die letters niet te gebruiken)

Thank you for reporting, unicode support has been added with this change:
