Increasing the alphabet for passwords doesn't really make your password stronger than if you would just increase it's length by a character or two, or better yet three or four. But, given that I can't imagine too many password crackers checking for more than a couple common extended characters, it's probably not that bad. Still doesn't excuse passwords like pɹoʍssɐd though.
