> Comparing Unicode strings without prior normalisation can lead to surprising results: "Frédéric" and "Frédéric" will probably look the same in your email client, but try to paste them in the search field and you'll probably see that they don't match since the first one uses precomposed diacritics and the second one combining ones.
