Why do you think they would "go out of their way" in order to use Unicode characters in the file name? You do realize there are bunch of languages in the world that actually can't write without the use of Unicode characters or at least customized Charset?
So what seems for you to "go out of their way" in order to use Unicode characters it seems perfectly normal to them. In fact to them using only ANSI characters seems "to go our of their way" big time.

Also you need to realize that since newer versions of Windows support using Unicode characters in user names. This also means that any username based paths like "C:\Users\%Username%\..." could already contain Unicode characters in it so not having Unicode support in your application file handling means you have a large possibility that your application won't work on such system. Especially since based on windows guidelines most of the settings should be stored in one of the sub-folders of the above mentioned user folder.
