This search needs to be NOT case-sensitive.

How can you do this?

Is it doable if TCharacter (or wahtever you call it) has no 'langauge' attribite?

'I am on FoolStrasse' versus 'I am on FoolStraße' is not a upper/lower case issue. Strasse and Straße have the same casing. So yes, you can do case-insensitive search.

The problem you describe does exists. ü and ue are equivalent in German, but not in Dutch. So someone searching for ü will also want to receive results for ue, a Dutch speaking person would not.

This however, should not be fixed at the string level, but at the file format level. I.e. in HTML you can do <DIV lang='nl'>. You could design a #27 escape code for text files if you'd like.
