This seems to be the direction that everyone is suggesting, and I'm
quite grateful for that. (I really hadn't ever needed to deal with such
issues in the past, having worked mostly with English and Hebrew, which
don't have such accent marks.)

As for the unaccent dictionary, I hadn't heard of it before, but just
saw it now in contrib, and it looks like it might fit perfectly. I'll
take a look; thanks for the suggestion.
