Comment(by sirzooro):

 miqrogroove,
 You can try to add following code somewhere early in WP code, e.g. in wp-
 config.php:

 {{{$_POST['tags_input'] = mb_convert_encoding( 'ace ąćę ace',
 'iso-8859-2', 'utf-8' );}}}

 This code will inject tags with incorrect encoding to the $_POST array.
 Make sure you save file with utf-8 encoding. With this you should be able
 to reproduce issue.
