Currently arche-core stores strings just as they are provided. It would be probably better to normalize them first (to any UTF-8 normalization form) to make searches more reliable.

Using NFKD might be the most desirable as it would allow an easy implementation of language-specific-characters-invariant searches by applying NKFD and skipping all characters with codes > 127 we get pure ASCII string equivalent (although it will only work for alphabets close to English). Of course this should be considered a separate feature.
