The first letter identification code
(maintenance/language/generateCollationData.php) won't work for all languages,
so some wikis will have their category pages broken terribly by this change.
Also, the default collation tables sort a lot of languages incorrectly, and the
amount of breakage that causes will depend on the language in question. So I
recommend doing this change on a language-by-language basis, after checking
each language for correct collation and first-letter behaviour on a test wiki.
Also, it would be nice to know in advance what percentage of sort keys will be
larger than the 230 bytes allowed by the database field, and if that percentage
is significant, whether there are categories on the target wikis where the
order will be changed by truncation after 230 bytes.
