Search function should include Č when typing C.

It would be nice if the search function could include all the diacritic (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diacritic) letters when searching the basic letter.

e.g:
a should also include á, à, ä
c should include Č, ....

Thanks you for considering!

    This is planned. There is a problem to be addressed behind the scenes before it can happen, with characters that look the same on the screen, but are represented by different codes underneath. It's not a flaw in Zotero particularly, but a wrinkle in the coding system itself (Unicode) that must be coped with.

    I'd like to add a +1 to this. lately i've had a ton of latino and finnish authors to search for and also to insert references from, and the diacritic thing has really come to the fore.

    also just wanted to point this back to a previous thread on the subject with more technical background:
