Unfortunately learned in the process that my problems with search are not caused by lack of normalisation, but by inconsistent encoding - there are three different Arabic/Farsi Unicode letters which look and (largely) behave the same way for ی . But they cause a mess during search. It is as if the letter I had a different code point for German than for English and yet another one for French. So if you type in a German word on an English keyboard it suddenly would not find it. Whoever implemented Unicode for Arabic script has a lot to answer for!! Totally bizarre!
