Debugger code (debug.datatables.net):
None

Error messages shown:
None

Description of problem:
It is said in release note of DataTable 2 that :
- Diacritic search support. You can now use DataTables search to look for accented characters without typing the accent.

This improvement does not work when the Natural sorting plugin is activated. I guess it is a bug ?

    Not really a bug as such (maybe?). More that the natural sorting plug-in doesn't provide a search formatter. Thankfully, it is easy to add:

    DataTable.type('natural', {
      search: function (d) {
        return DataTable.util.diacritics(d);
      }
    });

    @allan , finally there is another problem with this solution :

    • If I type the text filter without accent 'Tigereze' it works and it gets the row with 'Tigerezé'.
    • But if type the text filter with the accent 'Tigerezé', it does not find anymore the row with 'Tigerezé'

    That's an error that I'm going to correct 2.0.1. This thread also raised that.
