[email protected] changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ever confirmed|1 |0 Status|NEEDINFO |UNCONFIRMED --- Comment #5 from [email protected] --- A review for diacritics would be welcome. In comment 3, I've tried to answer the points made in https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=129469#c10 in comment 2. IMHO if we can type something easily, then we should be able to search it easily too. Just as typing in the lower and upper case is so easy on any keyboard, it is becoming increasingly easy to type accents (whether on phone or computer). Most users will find it necessary. Given this, the QFS will find better utility if this option for matching diacritics is provided (the way Mozilla Firefox has done it without making the search bar look complicated). People have appreciated Mozilla's feature (https://rubenerd.com/firefox-can-now-match-on-diacritics/). Regarding Collation Strength, i tried giving the references for further reading. What i intend to say here is that according to the IBM quote: "Almost all characters can be distinguished by the first three strength levels". So the first three levels will cover almost all cases that are usually encountered. So our QFS should handle at least these three strength levels. Other complicated or rare finds (such as regular expression, kashida etc.) could be consigned to the SF dialog as is currently done. The users who would know and use regular expressions or kashida is definitely few, but that is not so with diacritics.
