I also think that a more generic mechanism, like stringprep profiles, are 
better than "removing accents" for string matching purposes.
Other people already care about locale-aware semantic matching, we should care 
about giving it a nice API (to free people from the madness of ICU etc.) 
instead of wasting our manpower to reinvent mapping mechanisms.
