Only ru_RU? It doesn't get disabled with, say, zh_CN, ko_KR, or anything else where the script is outside of the Basic Multilingual Plane (AKA ASCII)?

Incorrect. ASCII is 0000-007F and the BMP is 0000-FFFF

You're right, I'm wrong, my bad. Still I wonder if the software fails to work when paths contain unexpected characters.
