Describe the bug
In some occasion, the parts names get corrupts when they contains UTF-8 letters (French letters such as à é è for example).

To Reproduce
Unfortunately, I don't really understand how this happens. I had 2 differents projects into which this happened.

It doesn't seem to occur when I open the project straight after I've opened Muse. I suspect it happens after I load one project, then I load an other one.

In one file, the part name got corrupted so badly that the initial file of 300 ko became a 2.5 Mb file, the part name accented letters got repeated endlessly. I've opened it into a text editor:

Expected behavior
Parts name should handle any UTF-8 letters
