Gource can already display UTF8 if you disable the character checking in
commitlog.h:isValid()
The problem is, without this invalid character sequences can get through that
cause a
seg fault in freetype2. Eg this commit to the linux kernel git (yes git-log
gives you
non utf-8 sometimes even when you ask for it).

So we need some way to validate usernames to detect cases like the above.
Maybe someone affected would like to implement this :)
