Hi,

I'd like everyone to do us a favor: please don't use UT_String class.
Use UT_UTF8String instead. Why ? Because at least UT_UTF8String
provide a safe an know non ASCII charset encoding, compatible with
C-String stuff.

One recent example:
AP_Dialog_FormatTable::setBorderThicknessInGUI()
AP_Dialog_FormatFrame::setBorderThicknessInGUI()

If I'm being wrong in this, then, please correct me. It is late.
