    Default Locale-aware QString::contains()

    Is there some method similar to QString::contains() but comparing the strings in a locale-aware way (like QString::localeAwareCompare() does)?

    For example, QString a = "Mr. César". If I call a.contains("Cesar") it will return false because 'é' is not the same as 'e'. I need some method that considers 'é' the same as 'e' and does the same with other non-ASCII characters (ö==o, ł==l, æ==a, ø==o, etc.)

    I could implement such method myself but probably I wouldn't be considering all possible combinations.

    I want to use it in a proxy model in order to filter row that contain the text typed by the user.

    I would be very surprised if such a method existed...
    Your biological and technological distinctiveness will be added to our own. Resistance is futile.
