Comment:

 i've taken a look through WP::parse_request(); and I must assume that it
 should handle IRI-Encoded URLs now properly. I do not fully understand why
 this all did not work with %postname% that time but with the current 2.7 /
 2.8 version, %postname% is properly used in URLs even with UTF-8. I
 checked that with the UTF-8 css classnames ticket #8446.

 WP->parse_request() is currently using rawurldecode() and is using it only
 on the path of the URI, not the query-info-part. That looks like a safe
 way of doing the IRI-Decoding to me.

 This is fixed, %postname% can be used with utf-8 characters beyond 7bit
 ascii.
