Wish : method unaccent
----------------------

                 Key: LANG-285
                 URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LANG-285
             Project: Commons Lang
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: Guillaume Coté
            Priority: Minor


I would like to add a method that replace accented caracter by unaccented one.  
For example, with the input String "L'été où j'ai dû aller à l'île d'Anticosti 
commenca tôt", the method would return "L'ete ou j'ai du aller à l'ile 
d'Anticosti commenca tot".

I suggest to call that method unaccent and to add it in StringUtils.

If we cannot covert all case, the first version could only covert iso-8859-1.

If you are willing to go forward with that idea, I am willing to contribute a 
patch.
