I would like to point a crucial issue when using Greek accented characters in searching.
Both accented and non-accented characters should have the same behaviour - result in searching.
For example if someone search for Αργος he doesn't get as a result Άργος as it should.
He needs to search adding the accent.
I am not developer to express it better, but I hope you understand :)
Please see this conversation as well: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-in-searching-with-greek-accented-character?replies=8#post-4937524
In my held opinion this is very important to be solved.

You could use orthogonal data to provide both forms of data for the search: http://datatables.net/blog/Orthogonal_data , but I don't think there is a good way of providing this type of match in javascript (I'd love to be proven wrong though!).
