What I meant was, use OpenOffice to open a document with Unicode text in
it. Make use that some "visual" character and bases on normalized text
and some are bases on non-normalized text (two or more characters
forming one visual character. eg: o + ¨ = ö).

The do a Find in the document using a normalized character. See what it
finds. Then do the same Find, but with non-normalized character. See how
long that takes to find the text.

As far as I know OpenOffice's Unicode implementation is pretty good and
quite complete.
