Don't know why we have to use the hexcodes anymore. Why couldn't we use just cmstartsortkeyprefix which always overrides `cmstarthexsortkey` and use
sortkeyprefix as cmprop argument?TASK DETAILhttps://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T74101EMAIL

Just noticed that if the user is trying to pass the cl_sortkey from the database to the bot, then the change I proposed above will break the bot's operation... :/
Maybe we can find a method to detect binary string values and convert them to hexadecimal sortkeys...TASK

The relation between the old cmstartsortkey and the new cmstarthexsortkey is as follows:
(I'm using Python 3 here)
import binascii
cmstarthexsortkey = '26589262ff277e03042692ff274d217e032627017e88010e'
cmstartsortkey = binascii.unhexlify(cmstarthexsortkey ).decode('utf-8',

Okay, it seems I found out. Each letter has to be changed to its hexadecimal
ASCII representation, using capitals. So to start at 'ABC' or 'Abc', one has to
use cmstarthexsortkey=414243. For non-ascii characters, I assume it's the
Unicode representation (which for

Okay looking further into it, I can only get it to work when I use one letter
in `cmstartsortkey` while `cmstartsortkeyprefix` seems to work also if the
sortkey has not specified explicitly (not sure what happened yesterday).

Okay there are two questions to be answered:
1. When was this introduced? I found a 1.19.17 wiki which hasn't deprecated it
and has not the new parameter.
2. What is actually the replacement. The documentation says `cmstarthexsortkey`
but

Haha, looking at it, if `cmstartsortkeyprefix` if the actual value we wanted to
use then we don't need to determine when this was added as this was already
present. This of course contradicts the current usage though so the question
is, what actually do we want to do
