Adding accent folding to English analyzer

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch
1

Right now I use the English analyzer for English text. If I wanted to
enable accent folding would I have to recreate the whole analyzer like this:
{
'type': 'custom',
'tokenizer': 'standard',
'filter': [ 'standard', 'english_possessive', 'lowercase',
'stop', 'porter_stem', 'icu_folding' ]
}

Assuming that is what I have to do, it looks like english_possessive filter
is not something I can create via the api. Should I be doing something
else?

The filter's name is 'possessive_english'

See https://github.com/elasticsearch/elasticsearch/issues/908

Note, if you analyze english only, there is no need for ICU because there
is a filter 'asciifolding'
