But the encoding used seemingly depends on the source application - Geany (GTK 2, I think) seemingly sends UTF8 text anyway, whereas Firefox escapes the unicode character. So I don't think we can correctly decode the STRING value in all cases.

The Tk documentation describes UTF8_STRING as being the "most useful" type on modern X11.
