I was just trying to think of a way to actually deal with this in a way that it's up to the developer to decide what they should be matching.
Even in those languages you still might want to treat an OCR of a "c" with "ç" in some cases, or you might want to treat them identical when moving from a system that only accepted ASCII in the past to one that is fully unicode compliant. And even in English there are situations where "ç" should not be treated as "c" (like in URL resolving or other scenarios where an exact match is needed).
It's not technically correct, but it's "more correct". And giving the developer the ability to determine where along that "scale" of exact-ness they want to be might help.
