If you really, really need metadata in the filesystem on the device, use save to disk to save books to the device.

I think the compromise approach it to let users own the risk, maybe you could add a check box "Convert non-English character to English equivalents" of "Sending books to devices", just like the "save to disk".
I guess all the non-English users will benefit from it.
