Sure:

You need to find a way to implement it, then do it (I can help in this
part), then test it, and if you did the implementation send a patch.

Well, then you probably found a bug on the wince interface. Can you
describe it better? What can't be shown as unicode? How do you set
this value?

WinCE is a purely unicode OS. If there is a bug somewhere it's in the
lazarus wince interface. (or in your code)

Also, I hope you have a very latest wince interface. The unicode fixes
are like 1 or 2 days old.

>   Hm. I didn't catch you. Wince (windows mobile) uses wince widgetset? Why Gtk1 problems appear?

The wince interface wants UTF-8. Now, how can you give it UTF-8 if
your IDE is working only in whatever system locale you have? You need
an IDE which let's you give UTF-8 to the WinCE interface.
