Markus, the result is rather unpredictable. At one time, I wrote Geneva and indeed got Genève. But, as in the past,the subsequent search produces no result. On other occasions, I can't even get that close. For Geneva, I get the following names: Les Geneveys-sur-Coffrane, Les Genevez JU, Les Genevez JU, Les Vacheries, Les Genevez JU, poste, Les Hauts-Geneveys, Les Hauts-Geneveys, Les Hauts-Geneveys, Crêt Jura, Les Hauts-Geneveys, gare". It seems we are not getting very far.

Thanks, Markus, for working hard to solve the bugs. Yes, indeed, now Geneva, geneva, genève, all give right returns in the form of Genève, which is to be applauded. But, the French accented lettres still pose formidable challenges. For Genève, the search result produces about a hundred bus stop names in the city. Some, like Genève-Stade, works without a hitch, while others, like Genève, Cornavin, produce no result. While it is puzzling why some Geneva names work and some do not, one thing is almost certain: if a stop contains two accented lettres, like Genève-Aéroport, or Genève-Pâquis, the search will almost certainly lead nowhere. So it seems that you have to work out a way to get around this accent-related bug before it can release its full potentials. I'm sure with your ingenuity we are not that far from getting there.
