Ok, this is bugging me again, so I'll say something!
Procedure (on WinXP and Opera7):
(1) Write a post with a special character, like θ.
The character displays fine on the page.
(2) Edit that post.
The character appears fine in my text box.
(3) Save changes.
The character appears as a '?' on the page.
Suggested solution: if possible, replace the special characters with their original incantation, I.E. θ with & theta ;, when you populate the "Edit Post" page.
