KSpread currently breaks Unicode.
See Bug 143530 for details.

In short, KSpread doesn't consider equivalent what Unicode defines as equivalent.
For example if a sheet has the string "é", searching "é" doesn't find it to match. Yet "é" and "é" are the 'same' string for Unicode.

I don't know whether this could be fix at a library level accross Koffice apps.
