Mamta A. Satoor commented on DERBY-1478:
----------------------------------------

The code work that will go in for this feature can be extended by someone with 
the itch to provide case-insensitive search support. Currently, with this 
feature, the Collator will be determined by Derby code from the territory and 
it will be passed to Collator sensitive CHAR classes so that can do collation 
based on that. Somebody would need to do the coding work to get the correct 
Collator for case-insensitive search and pass that it to Collator sensitive 
CHAR classes.

So, in short, at the end of this feature, an end user can't simply configure 
Derby to do case-insensitive search rather than territory based search. Some 
Derby coding will be required to enable case-insensitive search.

> Add built in language based ordering and like processing to Derby

> It would be good for Derby to have built in Language based ordering based on 
> locale specific Collator.
> Language based ordering is an important feature for international deployment. 
>  DERBY-533 offers one implementation option for this but according to the 
> discussion in that issue National Character Types carry a fair amount of 
> baggage with them especially in the form of concerns about conversion   to 
> and from datetime and number types. Rick  mentioned SQL language for 
> collations as an option for language based ordering. There may be other 
> options too, but I thought it worthwhile to add an issue for the high level 
> functional concern, so the best choice can be made for implementation without 
> assuming that National Character Types is the only solution.
