GPS-Download in JOSM in specific area not possible

[okilimu]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. download only gps-raw data with this url: ​http://api.openstreetmap.org/api/0.6/trackpoints?bbox=10.038045799999999,49.7493614,10.0412616,49.750925599999995&page=0
2. or look at public track ​http://api.openstreetmap.org/user/CornyJoe/traces/1209300
3. in <des> there is a german eszet with code 001A, which cause the parser in JOSM to fail load gps data

What is the expected result? gps data cannot be used in JOSM

What happens instead? missing gps data

Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if
possible.
