            Bug ID: 413842
           Summary: Wishlist: search not sensitive to special characters /
                    diacritics
           Product: digikam
           Version: 6.4.0
          Platform: Appimage
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Albums-TreeView
          Assignee: digikam-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: iwannaber...@gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
This is for the wishlist. I think it would be more intuitive if the search
results in the tree view (including folders, tags, and people panels) were not
sensible to special/international characters, the same way they are not
case-sensitive.

For instance. Let's say I have tagged people with the first name Àlex, Álex and
Alex. If I type "Alex", only the latter will appear. If I type "Àlex", only the
second one. I guess you know where I am going.

I would love if when I write "Alex" in the search box, the three of them should
appear.

So basically, my proposal is that diacritics are ignored in the search box.
Pérez should be treated as "perez", Françoise as "francoise", cañón as "canon",
etc.

PS: this suggestion has its origin in a family argument, where a relative
insisted that I write all tags without accents so they are easier to find.
