Apart from that, bad MySQL configuration can't be fixed by WordPress.

You should make sure that your blog charset is set to UTF-8, that your theme has the correct UTF-8 meta tags and you should consult your host about MySQL configuration.

But it irritates me that I can't copy-paste non-Latin characters (ABCD) into my blog posts. What irritates me more is that people are leaving non-Latin comments on my blog and they're just showing up as '???????????'.

Is it possible to do something to fix this out of the box or create a plugin to approve multiple types of characters?

Ideally, this would then lead to a plugin that would translate the foreign comment text into other languages too, thus allowing for a truly international discussion and allowing our blogs to come up in international internet search results.
