Layer properties's attributes: importing value map from external csv is not utf-8 compatible

Reported by: ricardogsilva Owned by: nobody
Priority: minor: annoyance Milestone: Version 1.4.0
Component: Vectors Version: Trunk
Keywords: layer properties, csv, value map widget Cc:
Must Fix for Release: No Platform: Debian
Platform Version: Awaiting user input: no

Description

When importing a csv file for use with the "value map" type of widget, in the "Layer Properties" -> "Attributes" tab, the imported csv is not parsed as utf-8, causing the accents of my native language (portuguese) to appear all garbled up. I think the file is getting parsed as ASCII, which is kinda limited for us non english natives. This forces the user to manually edit the value map, defeating the whole process of loading data from an external csv file.

In attachment there is a sample csv with portuguese words.
