Summary	0003116: track names beginning or ending with accented chars
Description	Track names can contain accented characters only in the middle of the string. If not, the character(s) are suppressed. Example : aéa -> ok éa -> not ok, is substituted by 'a' aé -> not ok, is substituted by 'a' Furthermore, if a track name is 'a' and is renamed to 'aé', Ardour pop the following confusing error message : "A track with the same name already exists". Cheers, Pierre
