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.
