In one of my work projects it was the Turkish İ that gave us trouble. In some case-insensitive text searching code, we matched the lowercase query against the lowercase text, and had to handle cases like that specially to avoid reporting the wrong matching span in the original text, since the lowercase string would have a different length than the uppercase string. This was one of my first real-world projects and opened my eyes a bit to the importance of specifications and standards.
