For a specific biblatex style, I have declared a bibliography option which takes a name, as in

Now LaTeX yields an error if the value of this option consists of braces, such as myname=M"uller:

Is there a way to work around this? If not, is there a way to expand a macro in such a way that braces disappear? My aim is to test for string equivalence via ifdefstring, and the test returns false if M"uller is compared to M"uller, as in
edefxM"uller

You can't use edef in this context: edefx..."u... will always fail.
If you are using UTF-8 for your files and your author can appear in the three forms
M"uller

then these macros can be what you want:
documentclassarticle
usepackage[T1]fontenc
usepackage[utf8]inputenc
usepackageetoolbox
makeatletter

All the tests yield "TRUE".
However this would fail for Franccais and Franc cais. So the final answer depends on your needs.

Trying out unicode bib options with

DeclareBibliographyOption[boolean]test-unicode[false]
ifstrequal#1𐎑𓀀ຢഓæçøûüŧũǻΦrenewcommandtestuni𐎑𓀀ຢഓæçøûüŧũǻΦ has matchedrenewcommandtestuni𐎑𓀀ຢഓæçøûüŧũǻΦ has not matched
and setting the biblatex option to
test-unicode=𐎑𓀀ຢഓæçøûüŧũǻΦ,
and compiling in xelatex with the file in utf-8 format, and suitable font (usepackagefontspec and newfontfacefunicodeCode2003)
Result of textbackslash testuni: funicode testuni.
gives
Changing the bib option to
test-unicode=𐎑𓀀ຢഓæçѾѬøûüŧũǻΦ,
produces
So looks OK now.
The old-style escapes are no longer really needed.

@JSpitzm Sorry, but without a real example it's impossible to say more.

Nevermind, it'll do for now without the bibliography option approach (I'll provide an alternative way to set the respective name). The real example is my biblatex-publist package on CTAN.

Thanks, @egreg, this seems to work for my cases. For some reason, however, it does not work for values passed through
DeclareBibliographyOption, which seems to do some expansion. I.e. with DeclareBibliographyOptionmynamedefmyname#1 and myname=M"uller the "u is expanded.– JSpitzm

stripbraces#1myname instead of defmyname#1– egreg
Oct 29 '12 at 17:25
this fails as well. It seems the
"u is already expanded when passed as #1 within DeclareBibliographyOption.– JSpitzm

Trying out unicode bib options with

DeclareBibliographyOption[boolean]test-unicode[false]

and setting the biblatex option to
test-unicode=𐎑𓀀ຢഓæçøûüŧũǻΦ,
and compiling in xelatex with the file in utf-8 format, and suitable font (usepackagefontspec and newfontfacefunicodeCode2003)
Result of textbackslash testuni: funicode testuni.
gives
Changing the bib option to
test-unicode=𐎑𓀀ຢഓæçѾѬøûüŧũǻΦ,
produces
So looks OK now.
The old-style escapes are no longer really needed.

Passing
M"ullerthroughedefis impossible and it wouldn't solve the problem anyway, becauseedefdoesn't touch braces that don't delimit arguments to commands.– egreg
Oct 29 '12 at 15:08
I'm not sure I understand. If I pass
M"ullertoedef, it expands toMüller, which is one step closer to what I want. Why is it "impossible"?– JSpitzm
Oct 29 '12 at 15:13
No,
"uexpands to the set of instructions for printing "ü", which is very different from a simple tokenü. Andedefx"uwill always raise errors: the command"cannot go insideedef.– egreg
Oct 29 '12 at 15:28
Hm, seemed to work good enough for my purpose (I compare two
edefed macros via etoolbox'sifdefstrequal). Now the question is: is there a way to fully expand a string for testing, including macros and nested braces?– JSpitzm
Oct 29 '12 at 15:32
Are the braces you need to strip off just like in
M"ulleror is there something more complicated?– egreg
