Perhaps have a user option (and let users set it during the same
initial how-do-you-want-to-report-this? dialog).
Many (most?) mail clients now support such characters.
Perhaps the default behavior should assume that many can,
and thus let users simply copy+paste such chars normally,
once they've said that their client supports this.
But yes, let them choose.
