Chevrons not rendered correctly in "undo" notification

[hughlilly]

Chevrons («») are not rendered correctly in the "undo" notification.

To Reproduce

1. Run the "Replace smart quotes with ascii" common transform on a text column
2. Observe that the "undo" notification contains replacement characters instead of chevrons

Current Results

Chevrons appear in the history list OK, but not in the "undo" notification, which times out and disappears.

Expected Behavior

The chevrons should be accurately rendered in this modal.

I don't believe this is caused by my data but am happy to attach it here if doing so would help fix the bug.

Thanks

The yellow notification thingy at the top shows encoding errors quite frequently. I also see it a lot while doing manual reconciliation.

Screenshot:

To reproduce:

• take a list of e.g. person names with many diacritics
• reconcile in such a way that you'll have quite a few entries to match by hand
• do that
• see the encoding issues

Here's a small dataset with many person names with diacritics for testing: documenta-13-artists.csv

Hi @trnstlntk is it only the notification banner, or do you see that unicode replacement char U+FFFD � in other display dialogs or areas of OpenRefine?

[trnstlntk]

I remember only seeing it in the yellow notification banner, but I'll keep my eyes peeled for other occurrences.
