CSV file containing titles separated by NO-BREAK SPACE
I've transcribed this from a ticket that one of our partners submitted.
A librarian noted that she had an Excel spreadsheet of titles she was copying
and pasting into Koha to search, and occasionally one of the titles wouldn't
come up even though they have the book. ( CSV file containing titles is
attached.) She noted if she just typed the title into Koha, it came up w/o a
problem.
Here's a screenshot of one of the failed searches.
Notice the %C2%A0 between the words. That's the UTF-8 code for non-breaking
space (see http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/00a0/index.htm).

The underlying issue here is that when we paste in a search term containing the
unicode NO-BREAK SPACE glyph, this arguably should be treated as white space,
and the search should succeed if it matches strings with words separated by
other whitespace characters.
