Curiously I just saw this tex/emacs question/answer elsewhere –
particularly amusing the first 'char' of the answer.

Question:
| I'm a new Emacs/Auctex User. Auctex for Emacs is amazing but
| there are some little things could be better. When generating a
| section with c-c c-s the label ist generated automatically. But
| if there is an german Umlaut in the section title like 'ä' this
| becomes just 'a' in the label. Is there any possibility that
| auctex will substitute the 'ä' by 'ae' and not by 'a'?

Answer:  
| '�' is not possible, since latex can not handle Umlauts in references.
| For 'ae' I'm sure someone is able to provide a little patch.
