 As stated in ticket #22363, the function `remove_accents` does not remove
 [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combining_character combining accents].

 Here is my test:

 {{{
 remove_accents( 'Capture d’écran 2013-02-20 à 23.36.06.png' );
 }}}

 This returns `Capture d’écran 2013-02-20 à 23.36.06.png` since `é` and `à`
 are made up with combining accents (e.g. `à` is `a` + {{{`}}}).
