Is this possible to do in Lisp? I assume it is in C, right?

If dired works or not is of lesser importance right now.

I can live with (setq file-name-coding-system 'utf-8) and then see
"Ide[]er" instead of "Idéer" but I would prefer, if possible off
course, to have Emacs to fully understand the filename and handle,
from the user's point of view, Idéer and Foobar equally.
