Hi !

So I work with Kendo UI for JQuery and Kendo UI for ASP.NET MVC and recently I had to use your combobox and found that the search was not accent insensitive and that there were no options to make it so. I think it would be a wonderful feature to have. My dataSource contains a lot of names that could potentially have accents and it would be really great to includes thoses names when I filter without accent.

Thank you !

Grid should have facility to set timezone from server side(like Scheduler). Rather than display dates in client side timezone.

I would like to see a separate assembly that can be referenced both on ASP.NET MVC and Application server side and that the DataSourceRequest can be transformed into a DataSourceResult on the Application server side and sent back to the website.

At the moment this is not possible due to the non-generic definitions of the DataSourceRequest and DataSourceResult classes. 

Referencing Kendo from the Application server side also requires references to System.Web and others that shouldn't be necessary.

Statically typed transport serialization should be supported, as required by WCF, Message Queuing or even Protobuf. Such transport mechanisms are required by N-Tier environments.

At the moment, if all DataSourceRequest's should be processed on a web server and propietary database licensing is in effect (ex. for MSSQL) where the cost is per port, it would end up being very costly.
