What kind of issues? Admittedly I have not tested KDE throughly but I have 
been using KDE with UTF-8 for a few months now and I have experienced no 
issues. There are programs that don't understand UTF-8 on my system (e.g. 
kompare) but I believe most og my KDE programs do understand UTF-8 (e.g. 
kontact, konquerer, konsole..).
