Bug Description
For instance, Björk... If i search for "bjork" on allmusic, the artist Björk comes up as a result. I think this would be reasonable behaviour for Resonate... but how do we do it?
Does the database engine (Postgres) provide a way to deal with this? Should we just, somehow, swap "non-English" characters for the closest thing (e.g., ö ==> o) when generating a "sortname"?
