Sorting of Diacriticals

<< < (3/4) > >>

Example: currently MC20 sorts

Ceclia Bartoli
Béla Bartók

but of course it should be the other way around, because k comes before l. The ó is being sorted immediately after o, instead of being sorted *as* o.

I'd love to have this question answered.

Diacriticals should sort the same as non-diacriticals.  In other words, ó and o will sort perfectly equivalent.

OK, so what might I be doing wrong for this not to be working for me?

Matt:
Well, I was wrong.  We weren't ignoring the diacritical during sorting.

But I think we should, so next build:
Changed: Sorting ignores diacriticals instead of sorting them special.

Great news !   Sorting them special always annoyed me (in Québec, we also speak french).
Les francophones vont vous aimer Matt, so will the other users of diacriticals  ;D
