Bug Description
Hello,
I have a feature request. I think all non-English people will agree with me.
Idea: Use all defined key layouts (in the user preferences) when user tries to search. For example, if English and Russian are defined as languages for typing and user has wrote "vtytl;th" then try to search for "менеджер" too (it is "manager" in English, so people may mean "Update Manager" or something like this).
Why: It is a very usefull feature for the non-english people because they often use a wrong keylayout (at first chance). For today, they should erase the wrong word and write again with the valid keylayout. First of all, it is a very usefull feature for users who has English as the default layout.
Let me know if you have any questions.

But i need someone who can help me with the startup (development process, documenting, etc).
