Comment:

 Hi,

 The best reference I could find on the subject was this page:
 http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/charset-unicode-sets.html

 It's supposed to list all the available `utf8_*` collations and it appears
 that `utf8_general_ci_swedish` and `utf8_collation_ci_swedish` are indeed
 not on it.

 However, it also says that the default collation for the `utf8` charset is
 `utf8_general_ci`, not `utf8_unicode_ci`.

 (Note that I don't have access to a mysql database to test this out and
 I'm only relying on the docunmentation I could find)


 Thanks.
