 I recently experienced something weird when adding a string from a foreign
 language as the value of a WP Option.
 Try this:
 {{{
 add_option( 'weird_character_test', 'test1𠆢test2' );
 }}}
 This will only be saved as "test1" in the wp_options table, as one can see
 after
 {{{
 echo get_option( 'weird_character_test' );
 }}}
 or quicker on /wp-admin/options.php.

 Could this be UTF8 related? DB collation is "utf8_general_ci". Or could it
 be the result of sanization?
