Comment 25 for bug 553133

By the way, have you tried the "full text search" of the Koo (KDE OpenObject) client? It uses the Postgres text indexing capabilities (nothing we should use on every field, but useful for partner names), so if you search for "Lopez" it will match both "López" and "Lopez", but also if you search for "Eléctricos" (plural) it will match "eléctrico" (singular)...

Maybe we should allow (from the framework side) to specify that a (text/char) field should be indexed like that (maybe something like "field.char('Name', size=128, human_search=True)"). And the OpenERP clients should be nice enough to use such 'human' search by default for this fields (otherwise the standard exact search should be used).
