--- Comment #1 from Heiko Tietze <tietze.he...@gmail.com> ---
Some more additions:

In #95192 the sorting of street numbers is discussed. To generalize I'd ask how
to sort with multiple numbers. My suggestion is to use all until the first
whitespace (or rather the first stop character)

Text 1/15
Text 2/11
Text 3/9
Text 4/3

With respect to the name there might be also the need to sort independent from
the name affix. The German rules define that "von der Lippe" has to be collated
at L - affixes "von" plus "der" are not part of the sort order unlike the
Flemish "de". So why don't we trust the system settings of collation here?
Guess there is something similar to Linux' LC_COLLATE under Windows and Mac Os.
On the other hand, how should LibO Calc knows what kind of text is in the
cells? Adding more switches makes the ugly dialog even worse. So we should
rather let the user calculate per SUBSITUTE() or RIGHT() in order to sort
properly.
