Philippe I can't reproduce.
When I drag the URL from the URL bar to my finder a get a file whose name is the
URL. Can you still reproduce the problem with a recent nightly build ?
You can mail in french if needed.
I am runing 10.2.8 and 2003102708.
I can reproduce. This still occurs.
It becomes an inaccurate character also in Japanese.
It checked on the page of Shift-jis and euc-jp.

Note that Mozilla creates a file named, “www.os9forever.com/os9helperFR.html”,
so whether or not this is a Mozilla or Camino bug is not evident.
The steps to reproduce here are a bit unclear. Dragging the URL text creates a
file named with the URL. Dragging the *favicon* creates a file named with the
page title.
That sounds wrong indeed, let's open a bug to get that straight :)

It still reproduces.
In the case of Japanese, all characters become strange.

But Right Japanese is displayed while dragging.

That WFM so maybe this is fixed in 10.4.
As for http://www.os9forever.com/os9helperFR.html, the problem still reproduces.

Operation in the drag is correct. 
And URL that save is done becomes not a Japanese page title name but
URL(www.mozilla-japan.org/).

This definitely must have been fixed in Tiger because all links mentioned WFM.

This blocks bug 301740, no?
Since it was fixed in 10.4, it must have been some sort of OS bug rather than a
Camino bug per so--although Safari never had the problem in 10.2 or 10.3, so
there was some way to pass a proper UTF-8 string to the Finder as a filename. 
But yeah, i18n.

This bug is fixed on 10.4 and above and as such will doubted-ly be fixed in Camino. Retargeting for Future and assigning back to nobody.

Closing WFM; this was mostly an issue with how core put DnD contents on the pasteboard, which is fixed in trunk (and won't be fixed on branch).
