Yes. Accents are stripped by decomposing each letter into its base and its mark, so every accented Latin letter is covered rather than a fixed list of the common ones. Letters that are their own letter rather than a letter with a mark, such as the Polish L with a stroke, the Danish O with a slash and the Turkish dotless i, are handled one by one. Russian, Japanese and emoji are left as they are, because there a mark changes the letter rather than decorating it.
