Hello,
I would have to defer to Andi on this one since my knowledge of PyLucene is limited. I would hope there would be an easy solution in the Lucene API for dealing with case insensitive comparison and locales.

However, changing locales is a very infrequent activity and a performance hit during this operation would be acceptable if no other solution is available.

In looking into bug 5718, I noticed that string comparison for indexing is done without ignoring case.

This probably isn't what users expect, but the fix for this isn't simple: case-insensitive comparison is locale-sensitive, which would indicate that we'd need to reindex when the user changes locales, which could be expensive.

Any ideas on how to deal with this problem?
