<>I've never seen a multi-script index; is there any real legacy behavior here, besides computer programs which were forced to do something?
I've seen plenty of multi script indexes and almost all of them had seperate divisions for each script.
There are multi-platform database engines which are straightforwad to "tailor" using UCA (e.g Mimer SQL <http://www.mimer.com/> - which someone mentioned earlier), and Open Source software rountines based on the UCA (e.g. ICU's rule based collator <http://pistos.pe.kr/javadocs/etc/icu4j2_4/j2h/com/ibm/icu/text/RuleBasedCollator.java.html> ).
So, if a scholarly community needs interleaved ordering, it should not be too hard to for someone amongst them to implement
and share with their colleauges.
