It would be really great if you used fonts that have letters like ä and ö. I know that this propably matter anything to most users, since they seem to be from America, at least if looked the forums. Betamaxx, for example, has this problem.

Could you please list some fonts that include those letters/symbols?

And you can also bypass the bitmapped font used in the skin and use any font you like, correct?

Well yeah, the font, but you can't change color, I think.

I'll try to compile a list of some sort. It just might take a bit of time, since I have about 450 fonts installed on my computer. Most of them seemed to have those symbols, but I need find a way to get them written down any other way than manually.

i use The Font Thing for browsing my fonts, but i dont think it will print out a list of fonts. there are quite a few programs that will, though. try doing a search.

Wouldn't unicode support fix this?

No. It all depends on the font. If the font doesn't include odd characters, it will just display those boxes...
