Bug ID: 429448
Summary: [Usability] Ignore common diacritical marks when
searching names for tagging face regions
Product: digikam
Version: 7.1.0
Platform: Microsoft Windows
OS: Microsoft Windows
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: Faces-Workflow
Assignee: digikam-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: jose_oli...@hotmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When a face region is being tagged, and the user is the process of looking for
a name the suggested search returns name values explicitly.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have a people tag already defined with the name "José"
2. Tag a new face region
2. Click on the face region to add a name
3. Type "Jose" without the accented e
OBSERVED RESULT
"José" is not returned as a suggested value.
EXPECTED RESULT
Digikam should ignore common diacritical marks (Example: á, é, ñ, ü, â, ect)
when suggesting names to assign to the face region. So a search for "Jose"
should return "José"

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The process of adding diacritical marks using a keyboard may involve multiple
keystrokes and combinations for example adding an é may involve <Alt>+<1>,
<Alt>+<3>, <Alt>+<0> in a standard keyboard. Users with names containing
diacritical marks on occasion have to sacrifice the proper spelling of their
names in software applications in order to accommodate convenience and avoiding
potential problems. In the early days of computing, this was understandable.
However as applications and operating systems more generally accept
international characters, the applications which run on them should also.
