Yes, they are. But if someone use calibre-web with Language other than English like me and who wants to manage the library with calibre like alter hundreds metadata or convert hundreds books from EPUB to AZW3 at once will end up with a messed up library.

So, I'm wishing there could be an option (or a plugin) to disable the ascii-ize of the author and title. Which I remembered there was a solution before version 5, which just need to comment 4 lines of code in `/usr/lib/calibre/db/backend.py`

So, could you please give the user choice on this feature?

Thank you.
