I haven't been following this too closely, but ISTR that cross- reference labels, like TeX command names, are limited to ASCII letters and digits 0-9. You might get away with accented characters using some encodings, but it would probably break horribly with UTF-8.
LaTeX doesn't seem to have any problem with this. There are accents in my labels and it works pretty well.
If you have an example you could send (off-list), I'm curious to see that. I tried using a section label with various accented characters and it failed. The LaTeX Companion (2nd) says that characters outside the ASCII range can never be used in labels and cite keys (p. 482).
