I don't want ć converted to c or to nothing. In fact I don't want anything translated at all.
How would you feel if CDSEO translated select characters in the English alphabet to some other 'almost identical' character? Probably not too happy. Why should non-English users expect anything less?
There exists a standard for this, supported by all current browsers and web-servers:
http://www.w3.org/TR/html40/appendix/notes.html#non-ascii-chars
I gave an example of an URL encoded in this way in my posting in this thread a few weeks ago.
This standard is what I expect CDSEO to support.

Hi Robert,
I appreciate your insight and assure you my views are not simply ethnocentric.
The creation of truly international urls is a large scale change to CDSEO particularly since it has to integrate with X-Cart without introducing problems. I am evaluating and testing requirements for this however but it wouldn't be available until the next major release of CDSEO as there would be much change and testing required.
