           Summary: [GTK] Implement strength level in search algorithm
                    when using glib unicode
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKit Gtk
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: cgarcia at igalia.com


See http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr10/#Searching

When doing a case insensitive search, comparing strings with foldCase is not enough to get the same results as ICU. ICU uses the primary level strength when the search mode is not case sensitive, this means that depending on the current locale some accented characters match to its not accented version. For example in Spanish "á" matches against "a", in German "ß" matches against "ss", in Danish "aa" matches "å", etc.
This makes some tests like fast/encoding/find-russian fail.
