Is your enhancement related to a problem? Please describe.

When using the "Insert Special Characters" plugin, I'm unable to quickly find the various Latin characters easily (à, è, ì, ò, ù, ö, ñ, ä) Instead, I must scan through all available options under the "Latin" menu.

Designs

To find à, for example, I should be able to just type "a" in the search and see if as a filtered option. Same with "e" for è, etc.

Describe alternatives you've considered

@ofadam as it stands now, you can find those characters by searching for the type of accent they're using:
à, è, ì, ò, ù - grave
ö, ä - diaeresis
ñ - tilde

I know that's not as ideal for you as searching for the base character, but its a workaround for now.

As we use a library that provides the full list of special characters, we'll need to see if there's a way to submit a PR there to tweak the searching to expose the base character as a way to include all the accent variants for that.
