I've been working on collecting some examples of various Mermaid diagrams in a gist, and have encountered a peculiarity that can't find any docs for.

I know that Mermaid doesn't support Unicode but I presumed it supported Extended ASCII (>128), but currently the Github version of Mermaid gives an error if you include many Extended ASCII (>128) characters in any labels. In particular and , however, ² does not, as does some foreign characters.

I'd like to see in the docs a list of the characters that the current Mermaid does support.

I found part of my solution in the docs in the flowchart section, which is to use quotes and HTML entities.

However, I wasn't expecting to find this doc here, as I think this is applicable for all labels, not just flowchart labels. Entity escape is should be in some more generic section.
