 * Hello,
 * When user submits URL with Serbian characters, plugin automatically sanitizes
   it and changes it. Is there a way to skip that?
 * Example:
 * User submits: [http://www.grazia.rs/lepota/make-up/mac-Cisto-zdravo-lice-prolec%CC%81e-2015-kolekcija](http://www.grazia.rs/lepota/make-up/mac-Cisto-zdravo-lice-prolec%CC%81e-2015-kolekcija)
 * Plugin turns it into: [http://www.grazia.rs/lepota/make-up/mac-Cisto-zdravo-lice-prolece-2015-kolekcija](http://www.grazia.rs/lepota/make-up/mac-Cisto-zdravo-lice-prolece-2015-kolekcija)
 * I’d like it to stay as it is submitted.
