Re: files completions for german umlauts



I used ripgrep on the zsh-completions git dir and the only result is this:

```
zsh-completions/src/_openssl
2490:    'ignore_type:not attempt to interpret multibyte characters in any way'
```

I'd say +1 on the opinion that zsh may be doing multibyte the wrong way. Even with this result you can't tell for sure whose fault it really is.

Did you start with a minimal config?
That hint helped.

Recently (1. Dec) I added `unsetopt multibyte` to my config as I do not
use any multibyte charset, not in filesystem and not in shell.

Setting that option on solves the problem. But it is wrong in my
oppinion to leave that to on!

So I believe that to be a bug of zsh doing multibyte the wrong way.
