Short description of error
I couln't be able to write non-latin characters in object names or subtitles etc. input area doesn't allow me to write characters like "ş" "ç" "ü" "ğ" even though my font is latin extended and on other softwares (krita, chrome, visual studio code etc. ) there is no problem.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
open belender > doubleclick and change default cube name and try to type a non latin caharter like "ş" "ç" "ü" "ğ". but do not paste. it accepts pasting but does not accept typing.

I am able to write German umlauts such as ü in Blender on windows. Which layout does your keyboard have? How do you type the non-latin characters if they are not in the keyboard?

i have non-latins on keyboard. soon i will test the keyboard with windows blender. i will share results.
