Requirement: Messages with accents and smileys

Hey there.

Is there a way for developpers of the site to add letters with accents to the letters possibility list for messages?
I know in English there are no accents (fortunately ^^), but in many other languages, it's is a bit difficult as accented letters are just removed in messages! :/

And well, another requirement, more universal this one. Why can't we send smileys on messages? They are transformed into "?" :/

It would be great to add that to the site ;)

Cheers

It doesn't look like you can. I posted something two days ago that had a German "umlaut" in it, and when I saw the post just now, the umlaut was gone. In German, there's a workaround in that you can put an "e" after the standard letter to show that it's supposed to have an umlaut. I don't think there's an equivalent in other languages, though.
