QTextBrowser and unicode latin1 supplement block

Message 1 in thread

  Hi,

It seems that QTextBrowser won't display unicode characters in the 
range U+0080...U+009F unless they're expressed as HTML entities.

Sample code with U+0093 (left double quotation mark):

#include <QTextBrowser>
#include <QApplication>

int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
  QApplication a(argc, argv);
  QTextBrowser* w = new QTextBrowser(NULL);
  w->setHtml(QString("<html><body>") +
	     QString("<p>U+0093 as HTML entity: &#x93;") +
	     QString("<p>U+0093 as QChar:")+QChar(0x93) +
	     QString("</body></html>"));
  w->show();
  a.exec();
  return 0;
}

With Qt-4.3.4, the rendering is OK for the HTML entity but not for 
QChar(0x93). What would be the rationale for this difference?

Regards,
