I hope yes ;) It depends on current locale settings. The shell variables,
which control it, are (from low to high prio): LANG, LC_CTYPE, LC_ALL.
You have to set one of them to the name of German locale. I don't know,
how locale names look like on your system; on my setting LC_CTYPE to
De_DE.88591 solves your problem.
The same applies to history list.
BTW zsh is using locale when showing list (e.g. with autolist option)
but not when doing menu completion. Is this intentional?
