If they're lucky. The less lucky will only get default-UCA sorting.

I have spoken to representatives of two important vendors in the past who *do* understand that this requirement is an architectural feature of the Unicode Standard and who *do* understand that there is a requirement for people to be able to get access to it.


Therefore I remain more optimistic than you in this matter.

The default template is about least-astonishing behavior.  I judge mixed
sorting (at level 1) to be least astonishing.

I consider interleaved mixed-script text to be illegible, and unsuitable for the default template.
