Thank you for the links. Looks like that the php-wfio extension is a better
solution as it would be more reliable.

I've just tested the pdo sqlite extension and it worked fine when provided
with a utf-8 path to the file database. This extension seem to be handling
unicode paths independently of php. That's a good news.
