Possibility to convert non-ascii characters to ascii in Deluge

Possibility to convert non-ascii characters to ascii in Deluge

Hi! I am making a function that automatically creates emails for participants in a project. I am currently trying to convert all non-ascii characters that might be in a users full name to ascii characters. I can't seem to find a built-in function to do this. Has anyone successfully made a function to do this? 

PS. If there is no built-in functions to do this, then maybe you should make one? :)
