If two strings are normalised and in the same encoding, you can find one in the other by comparing bytes, yes.
No, you can't. Consider searching for "e" in a decomposed representation of e-acute -- you should find nothing, but you will get a false positive instead.
Whoops, I'd forgotten about that for a moment. But, if I'm not mistaken again, you never get false negatives. False positives can be skipped quite easily after basic_string::find has found one.
I wouldn't call anything that requires knowledge of Unicode composition rules "quite easy". :-) meeroh
