      Editing a document in Word and Firefox fails if the page title contains non-english page titles - WebDav launcher does not support nonenglish symbols in URL.

      Examples include Korean or Russian page titles.

      1. Direct yourself to a page
      2. Create a new page with the following title: 
        소스 보기
      3. Save the changes
      4. Now use the option Edit in Word via Tools >> Edit in Word

      This issue can be replicate using:
      Firefox 3.0.x and Firefox 3.5.5
      WebDAV 1.0.3 Firefox plugin

      However, there is no problem editing a Confluence page in word with umlaut character as the title of the page.
