Searching and "special characters" in names

Hi,
would it be possible to support accents like é è à â etc in search/filters across DHIS?

Currently, searching works in data element/dataset group editor and when designing datasets for example, but it does not work when searching for data elements/indicators in general and, most importantly since it is annoying to end users in addition to the admins, it does not work when searching for data elements/indicators in PT/DV. In french (and probably other languages) this makes the filter/search pretty useless.

Seems to work in PT/DV. I tested with an indicator containing é.

I tested again now in PT with a data element containing é, and it does not work here (2.15):
