Do I understand correctly: If I have x albums like "Études": - An "É pocket" will be created (and x entries reserved for that). - The album will be sorted in the "E pocket" regardless. - The count for "E" albums is wrong (+x, because É is counted, too). - That results in shifting the last x

Years ago I wrote a "scriptlet" (plug-in Perl module code called via a higher-level driver program). Can this idea help for mappings? We do this kind of transliteration for the search, but not the sorting. But I'm not sure we want to use the transliterated character for the grouping, as this

Maybe this helps in any way: 26704 The album "Eybler: Christmas Oratorio" is the last entry of "pocket E" while "Eybler: Die vier letzten Dinge" is the first one in "pocket É". The album "Écho" is found not in the "É" but in the "E pocket". The "À pocket" does not contain any album
