Bug Description

On the bug page, if you click on the "Subscribe Someone Else", and enter a search term into the picker with a unicode character. You will just get a "Loading results failed" error message.

It appears that the problem is caused by the javascript makeing a REST call with the non-ascii character encoded as ISO-8859-1. See the "%F6" in this query:
   https://bugs.launchpad.dev/+huge-vocabulary?&search_text=Bj%F6rn&batch=6&start=0
It works fine, if the non-ascii character is encoded as utf-8, "%C3%B6".
