There is only very limited unicode support.

ZPublisher supports a set of "unicode" type conversions (causing
UTF-8 encoded data to be converted to unicode) and
converts unicode on output to the encoding specified
by the "Content-Type" charset of the response.

CMF does not do anything beyond this to support unicode.

You will have no problems when you use UFT-8 encoding everywhere.
