Replacing all accents

[skanskan]

Is there any stringr or stringi function or simple way to replace all accents/diactritics from a string with the plain version of the letter?

For example
soñar -> sonar
camión -> camion
égoïste -> egoiste

I'm looking for a single command to do it, instead of having a large list of possible changes.

x <- c("soñar", "camión", "égoïste")
stringi::stri_trans_general(x, "Latin-ASCII")
#> [1] "sonar"   "camion"  "egoiste"

Are there plans to expose stringi::stri_trans_general() in the {stringr} interface?
