Hi, about accents in lyrics, wether to include them or not. I think we should include them, specially if we have songs in quite a few languages, and members ensure of their French, German, Spanish, whatever. So we would get things like

O rage, ô désespoir, ô vieillesse ennemie!
N'ai-je donc tant vécu que pour cette infâmie?

with its complete set of accents. But in the background the text is

O rage, &ocirc; <meta o> d&eacute;sespoir, <meta desespoir,> &ocirc; <meta o> vieillesse ennemie!
N'ai-je donc tant v&eacute;cu <meta vecu< que pour cette inf&acirc;mie? <meta infamie?>

Instead of meta chose any tag you like. Now the text would show all the accents, and yet it should not be too hard to modify the search engine to look into either the accented or the unaccented version (I assume the search engine already has to separate words anyway?)

Do you think that is a reasonable way of including idiosyncratic characters? If it is then I'll start doing that in things I send and pushing others to do the same.
