Context

To test this issue I created a new local test site using the latest version of Zensical (0.0.26), installed with pip on a Linux system (Debian 13).

Bug description

I created a new site using zensical new and added two directories and a few files, as shown below:

├─docs/
   ├─ eng/
       ├─ test-en.md
       ├─ 測試英文.md 
   ├─ 中文/
       ├─ test-zh.md 
       ├─ 測試中文.md 
|
 zensical.toml

After starting the server with zensical serve, the only page the autoreloads in the browser when modified is docs/eng/test-en.md. The pages with Chinese names, or the pages inside a directory whose name is in Chinese are regenerated correctly by Zensical, but to see the changes it is necessary to manually reload the page in the browser.

The same happens when new files are created. Only those created in the directory tree that use only Latin characters are automatically reloaded and shown in the browser.

I'm using Firefox v. 148.0.2, but the same happens in Chromium (144.0.7559.103).
