Accents (éè öü) not showing in title #47

I have been using this plugin for a week now. It is wonderfully fast. The only problem (and a big one) is that accented letters vanish from paper titles. As you probably know, when a European language uses accents to spell words, they are necessary, not optional. Even in English this is necessary, as many author names or concepts may bear these accents.

Process:

  1. When using "Reference Map: Search online and insert", the accents in the title disappear (but not in the summary, if there is one). try:
    • "mécanique" will show up as "mcanique"
    • "Schrödinger" as "Schrdinger"
    • "El Niño" as "El Nio"
    • "ça freudien" as "a freudien"
    • "Strauẞ" as "Strau"
    • "forêt" as "fort"

Using UTF-8 generally solves such encoding issues, but I don't know exactly how the plugin is programmed.

I have been able to reproduce the bug using a small vault without any other plugin activated, which means that it is not due to a conflict.

The debugging mode was not useful, as the console stays silent.
