Use of UTF-8 triple points … instead of "..."

[Martin Eberhard Schauer <Martin.E.Schauer@gmx.de>]

Hi,

I was asked to use "…" (an UTF-8 character, German shortcut
<ALT GR>+<.>) instead of three single points in my translations.

Is it safe to do so nowadays? Are there reasons not to do so?

Cheers,
