Unicode characters in citation text trigger intermittent crashing under Linux #25

I've been getting some intermittent crashing of LibreOffice under Ubuntu while playing around with the plugin, mostly when changing from ReferenceMarks to Bookmarks and vice-versa, but there have been multiple reports of this on the forums for just inserting citations.

The bug is highly annoying because zotero requires a restart because of a broken socket connection and there remains a soffice.bin process, which needs to be killed before it is possible to restart LO too.

Very likely to be an upstream issue, but we should at least get to the bottom of it and inform the document foundation.

As discussed in this thread we've got to the bottom of the problem - unicode characters. Only affects Linux and reproducible with Z4.0.
