German umlauts in file names

Hi,
is there really no one out there who ever came across German umlauts in
file names and commit comments? At least for the latter I noticed some
mentioning on mercurial's wiki.
But most annoying is for me that I cannot use umlauts in file or path
names, which pretty much hinders me to switch my existing repos over to
hg.
I still hope that I just did not set up my TortoiseHg client right. Hope
there is a switch somewhere in .hgrc or mercurial.ini where I tell the
client that my server actually uses utf8 and the client window's charset.
Hope to get reponse on this one, because I do believe that hg is
definitely worth a try, even though the client torotoisehg is still far
from tortoise(svn|cvs). But the possibility to have full history on every
machine is just great.
Regards,
Marko
