--- Comment #6 from M. de Rooy <m.de.rooy at rijksmuseum.nl> ---
Just an additional observation:

This seems to work for me too. I tested a few combinations including Latin
diacritics, and some Chinese characters in the patron category as well as in
the members template text. The following remark on Apache::Util did however not
fully reassure me:

Apache::Util, escape_html says: [This function will correctly escape US-ASCII
output. If you are using a different character set such as UTF8, or need more
control on the escaping process, use HTML::Entities.]

Note that Template Toolkit (at least version 2.87) does however first try
Apache::Util and only if that is not available, HTML::Entities.

Just under the assumption that HTML::Entities would do a better job, we could
do the following, forcing TT to use it:
use Template::Filters;
Template::Filters->use_html_entities;
(That would make HTML::Entities a Koha dependency.)
