Case insensitive search and regex
It seems that case insensitive search with regex option enabled works only with ASCII characters.
For example, if you enter the following text into a document:
"Ä, Ö, Ü on a German computer keyboard"
and then try to search for "ä" with "Regular expression search" enabled and "Match case" disabled, the search terminates with a message "The specified text was not found."
Expected behavior: searching for lowercase "ä" with "Match case" option disabled should also find uppercase "Ä" if the option "Match case" is disabled, regardless of whether normal or regex search if performed.
Yes, this is the limitation of Scintilla's builtin POSIX regex.
