SUMMARY Feature request: Folders and files can be selected easily with the keyboard by typing the first or the first few letters. However, this does not work when the names start with a special character, for example the German "Umlaut". It would be nice if characters with modifiers would be treated the same as others. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Create a folder containing subfolders or files, for the purposes of this example: `mkdir AB AC AÜ August Oa ÖV Ovation Over` 2. Sort view alphabetically 3. Try selecting the different folders using the keyboard letters. For example, 'AA' will select folder "AC", 'OVE' will select folder "Over". OBSERVED RESULT It is not possible to select folders with special characters. Typing 'AU' will select "August". Typing either 'OV' or 'OO' will select "Ovation", jumping over "ÖV" EXPECTED RESULT Characters with modifiers should be treated the same as without for this purpose. Using the last example, typing 'OO' should select 'ÖV'.
