--- Comment #1 from Jason Crain <jason at aquaticape.us> ---
If you look at the copy and paste from adobe reader and chrome, the word 'Über'
is not actually in that document.  The diaresis is separate from the 'U'.  We
could make search looser by stripping out combining characters.  Looks like
that's what adobe reader and chrome do.  Is that the kind of thing that people
would want?  Being able to find 'uber' by searching for 'über' or 'ubér' or
'ũb̏ȇ̱r̽'?

That might make some people upset.  We already have bug # 85702 requesting to
make search stricter.  Though personally I think a looser search makes sense.
