Has somebody integrated Unicode normalization into Postgres? if not, I
would have to implement my own function by using this CPAN module:
http://search.cpan.org/~sadahiro/Unicode-Normalize-1.03/ .
I need a function which removes all diacritics (1) and transforms some
characters to a more compatible form (2) to get a better index on strings.
Best,
Andi
1) à,ä, ... => a
2) ø => o, ƒ => f, ª => a
