So what I did? I wrote plug-in according to my vision. I know it's not good approach to use native characters in java source at all. Better idea is using properties bundles. But sometimes it's OK, when you want to write some small piece of code which is used only by yourself.
Some screenshots:
1. You can use java editor hint:
2. Or just press CTRL+SHIFT+A or right mouse click on selected text:

3. and result is:

You can download this plugin here. Sources can be found in project site.

:) you are a hero
ough dear, for you everything...
is there also a reverse function?
(or better: a tooltip, what the encoded ascii means)
it should also work in .properties files
an an option to disable the hints
There is no reverse function for now.
You can disable hint through Options menu. Tools -> Options -> Editor -> tab Hints.
Select language Java from combo box. Then disable hint in category "General".
