[sword-devel] better UTF-sensitive sort

Hi Karl,

Windows is largely based on UTF-16, even though many applications can handle
UTF-8 internally.

Have you timed a round trip conversion of the language names from UTF-8 to
UTF-16 and back again?
Is it really so slow that it would be noticeable to users?

Are you looking for a locale neutral sort order that will be the same no
matter what is the locale of the PC?
If the answer is yes, does anyone else think that would present any problems
to users?

Best regards,

David
