Oh, I found a much simpler way: you simply type in the normal search field

Code:

~Carr.

or

Code:

~Carr[eé]

Apparently, a tilde ("~") introduces a regexp. The simplest one is a dot ".", which stands for any single character. This should cover many of your cases. A set of characters, e.g. "[eéè]" matches any of those in the brackets and therefore effectively strips the accents.
