@abroter, what layout do you have? On quick tests I did have correct utf8 chars for input, just didn't have fonts installed.

I think the report is that Blender on macOS does not support IME, which is not really a bug but would good to support. If you add e.g. Simplified Chinese as an Input Source on macOS, typing in text fields normally gives you a little popup to compose Chinese characters, this does not happen in Blender.

Just as @brecht said: This is feature that blender doesn't support. Let's add this as feature request.
