Comment:
#3309 marked as duplicate. #3309 is about the javascript helper, and both
parts must use the same approach to handle non-ASCII characters, so it's
really one problem.
My personal view is that, at the current stage of implemention, it is too
costly to try to maintain a best approach for each of the several hundreds
languages in use today. I'd suggest:
* to provide one common standard version for all languages that might
remove all accents ('รค' -> 'a'), which can be done generically (but
perhaps not easily from within JavaScript),
* and add a hook so that everybody can link in their favourite way of
handling this
I don't have any idea how to treat non-Latin scripts like chinese, not
even Russian or Greek, but table-based transliterations are too much
effort when they need to be maintained for each language.
