These matching rules strip out diacriticals before performing the case
ignore match, which is something the existing case ignore matching rules
don't do.

The names of these matching rules are clearly causing confusion. A better
name for caseIgnoreNonasciiMatch, for example, would be something like
caseIgnoreCanonicalLatinMatch or caseIgnoreBasicLatinMatch.

Hi,

I made a draft to propose new LDAP matching rules :
http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-pauzies-ldap-schema-nonascii-mr-00.txt
and I hope you could send me comments on this.

I also made patchs to add thoses matching rules implementation in OpenLDAP.

Alexandre
