Hi Team,

I have custom sorting requirement where the following rules apply

1.Alphabetize letter by letter from A to Z.
2.Ignore the capitalization of letters
3.Ignore mathematical symbols and any special characters that do not
include a Latin letter
4.Ignore punctuation
5. Do not ignore spaces. Spaces follow the rule of "nothing precedes
something"
For example the title "Do we go?" comes before the title "Does it count?",
because the space after "Do" comes before any letter attached to the end of
this string (in this case, the "es" in "Does").

I managed to achieve all except #5 by creating a field with the following
collation(I'm using search:search)

My sort results below works fine except for 'Does it count?' coming on top
of 'dø we go?'

Is there a collation where I could define to not ignore spaces while
ignoring punctuation and symbols?


Thanks,

Blessing.
