Card with special character can't be found #52

I was looking for this card : "Ghazbán Ogre" but your database knows it as "Ghazban Ogre" so this call failed to found it : http://api.mtgdb.info/search/Ghazb%C3%A1n

:+1: In future versions this will change. We will get there though. The way that it was approached for the current alpha version is it is easier to type "Ghazban Ogre" than with the special characters. Now I get it if you are trying to match from the gatherer through automated means it is a pain.
As far as usability for the end user using your application, built from the api it is easier for them.
