Great, it's working. Although it would be more BoltWire-like to only
install one file for each language. Is it a bad idea to convert the
sort_de function to something like sort_custom, put it in the core (as
it's then generic for all languages, and could even be used for custom
sorting of fancy utf-8 symbols) and let it read the actual ordering
from site.language.xx?
In site.language.xx a simple syntax could be used to define for
example how umlauts are treated:
ä -> a (read: ä becomes a for comparison)
ü -> u
ö -> o
And/or define after which character they should be listed:
ä <- a (read: ä comes after a)
ü <- u
ö <- o
This way you only had site.language.xx to describe the whole custom
language properties. And for a multi-lingual installation you would
not need to install various plugins that basically work exactly like
each other. Am I the only one who thinks this is lots of redundancy
and less the "BoltWire way"?
