I'm also not able to get unicode characters to copy in like that, but I
also haven't had any problems with data containing the *tab* character.
It seems to be properly escaped (see my other email in this thread) so
it doesn't seem to matter if it appears in the data stream. The *only*
reason I see to switch from tab is if the receiving application requires
it in a different format.
