Search with accents
SUMMARY
When looking for apps/configuration/... KRunner and the Plasma launcher take
the accents (ex : é) into account, which can be annoying.
Usecase : In attached file, I am trying to quickly open the Display Settings
(Affichage et écran in french), so I type 'ecra', and the launcher does'nt find
anything. I must type 'écra' so that it finds it.
It would be great if the search ignores accents (in any languages). For
comparison, GNOME handles this properly.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set your Plasma to french (or whatever language with accents)
2. Press Alt+F1 (or launch KRunner)
3. type 'ecra'
OBSERVED RESULT
No Result match the french word 'écran'.
EXPECTED RESULT
Results containing the french word 'écran', for instance "Capture d'écran" or
"Verrouillage de l'écran"
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
