#7309: Search does not elegantly handle entities and unicode

 Priority:  normal   |   Milestone:  2.7      
Component:  General  |     Version:  2.6      
 Severity:  normal   |    Keywords:  il8n

 If the title of your post does not use unicode:
 [*FPL}--  De Carpádrez: La doble pregunta

 but when rendered you copy and paste the title and search for it with
 unicode:
 [*FPL}-- De Carpádrez: La doble pregunta

 You end up with bupkis.

 We should handle intermediate conversion of unicode into entities to aid
 in searching for il8n content. This may result in extra queries, but would
 help out our non-unicode using non-US speaking users.
