Name search not working properly with diacritical signs

Description

Whereas I can search "Hoffmann" with "hoff", "mann" or "Ho" (probaly even "HoFFmaNN" -otherwise said: case insensitive), it is not that simple with names that contain diacritical signs ("accents").

Díaz is translated DÍAZ, hence "dí" yields nothing, whereas "dÍaz" would be a possible way to search and find the person.

Not sure, if this is still present in v1.2.

It is. We now remove accents before indexing :)

Thanks for the report anyway!
