Description Eugene Savitsky 2024-04-07 20:34:51 UTC 
Windows does it for at least settings, so it would be great to have it in KDE as well.
Automatically convert Cyrillic input to Latin for searching a program or setting.

Locale/KDE language: English
Keyboard layout: Russian

1. Hit Meta/Start/Super button
2. Enter in Russian keyb layout  ьщгыуб which correspondents to "mouse" in Latin layout (a usual mistake, when you forget to change the layout to EN)

Actually Result:
Is one line shown:
Search  Duck Duck Go for ьщгыуб

Expected Result:
show all related for "mouse" entries:
KMouseTool - program
Mouse - setting of KDE

Same can be applied to KRunner.
