No, they don't, because the only textual indexes on shared catalogs are
on "name" columns, which are intentionally not locale aware, and
wouldn't be collation aware either.

Yeah, name uses strcmp, which is not locale aware but from ANSI perspective there is collation SQL_IDENTIFIER for it which is fortunately implementation defined.

What I see now as the problem is that we need also to know correct collation for ORDER - for example:

select * from pg_shdescription order by description;

...thinking...

but it should solve by collation per column which will work well with pg_attribute cloning for new database as Martijn mentioned.
