Forwarding fix for kate from upstream. Bug description: I've a Kate session called "Replicación LDAP" (note the "ó"). When I open it from the new Kate applet in the kicker, it appears empty because the session name is "Replicación LDAP" (note the encoding error in "ó"). I use Kubuntu 6.10 with KDE 3.5.6. Of course I use UTF-8 and don't have encoding problems at all, so I suppose that the kicker Kate's applet does something worng about the encoding.
