In addition, it would be great to have input from Koha users using
*any* language that contains diacritics, as there is a functionality
question underlying the discussion.

At the moment, the module in question is used to remove diacritics
when automatically generating a public catalog username -- e.g., if a
patron whose surname is Müller is registered with a Koha database,
would they expect, based on their use of other websites, that their
username could include the diacritic (e.g., "müller")? Or would they
expect that it would never include the diacritics (e.g., "muller")?

Regards,

Galen
