That is an interesting one

You could use the "list replace" method, and enter all the characters you want in [ ] with the "use regular expression" option enabled

here is draft of the entries you can use, the [ ] is the "Text to be replaced", and the character after is it the "replace with":
[àáâãäå] a
[ç] c
[éèêë] e
[ìíîï] i
[ñ] n
[òóôõö] o
[úùûü] u
[ÀÁÂÃÅÄ] A
[Ç] C
[ÈÉÊË] E
[ÌÍÎÏ] I
[Ñ] N
[ÒÓÔÕÖ] O
[ÙÚÛÜ] U

case sentive: checked
use regular expressions: checked

could probably be improved/adapted to the language you need to remove the accent from, but the idea is there

cheers
