New issue 6338 by [email protected]: history search needs  
normalization/folding of index terms and query terms
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=6338

<see b/665869>

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Open Hebrew Chrome
2. Open the attached hebrew_with_vowel.html and regular_hebrew.html
3. Open "history" page
4. Type "אֲשֶׁר" (or copy other frequently appeared Hebrew characters in
hebrew_with_vowel.html) in the search box and press "search history".
5. only hebrew_with_vowel.html appears as search result, although there are
equivalent hebrew characters without vowel exist in regular_hebrew.html
6. Type "אשר" (or copy other frequently appeared Hebrew characters in
regular_hebrew.html) in the search box and press "search history".
7. Only regular_hebrew.html appears as search result, although there are
equivalent hebrew characters with vowel exist in hebrew_with_vowel.html

8. For the correct search result, open the attached hebrew_test.html in
Chrome (need use Chrome trunk which includes webkit patch  
http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/3953), and try search the above characters
in "Find in Page".


What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
History search does not folding/normalization on the text for search, and
search only for the exact string.

We need to do folding/normalization. That folding needs to be done for both
indices and queries.

In the first step,  just applying NFC (Normalization Form Composed) would
suffice. See
