Great! (Let me check for more tasks if you are so fast *g*)

A simple document wouldn't help much when you want to search. Diacritics are
easy: use the French accent in á (press ' first then a, or just copy/paste).
Another character is the circumflex in ê (^ + e). In a sentence with Hêlló
Wôèrld you should find this term when [x] Ignore Diacritics is checked
(respectively according your changes) but not vice versa.

More difficult is the kashida. Wikipedia give the example الحمد vs الحمــــــد
(to me it looks like a straight line). When I enter the latter into a text and
search for the first it is found only when [x] Ignore Kashida is on.
