 I open new ticket, because I didn't found any reported problem with UTF-8
 (except this one #704 which is afaik something different).

 When I try to create file/directory over web frontend, everything goes
 well. But any attempt to create directory/file with national symbols over
 FTP/SFTP frontend fails.

 WinSCP tell me "Path could not be decoded as UTF-8", Total Commander just
 tell me some general error.

 Example directory name which fails: žluťoučký kůň úpěl ďábelské ódy
 (means: Yellow horse moaned devil odes), but fails also with any other
 reasonable name as "dovolená" (holiday).

 Reproducibility: always
 Python version: 2.6
