Style Manager - Impossible to work with non-Latin characters (tag or symbol names)

Description

I open Style Manager and I add a new style, label it with an English name, and apply some English tag to it. Works fine! However:

If either a symbol or a tag has a Cyrillic name (Russian), then nothing happens when I add the tag to the symbol (the tag remains empty)
If I try to change that symbol name from Russian to English, I get this error: "Save Item - Name is already taken by another item. Choose a different name." But I'm sure that the new name is unique because I type many random Latin characters.

I don't see this behavior in QGIS 2.18 (I have both QGIS versions installed on the same Windows machine) - there you can manage tags (called 'groups') and label names with Cyrillic chars without problems. Renaming of Russian label names also works fine.
