May I even suggest that the name of the new column does not even use "sortkey"

i.e. "cl_sort_prefix" instead of "cl_sortkey_prefix"

Why? because this column should NEVER need to convert that prefix itself to a
binary sortkey, it should just still be the humane-readable prefix that was
specified in {{DEFAULTSORT:sort_prefix}} or in [[Category:...|sort_prefix]].

This will avoid confusion, but it will also allow simpler recomputing of actual
sortkeys for various locales, without having to parse the page again for each
locale:

Note that when evaluating and expanding the parameters of
{{DEFAULTSORT:sort_prefix}} and of [[Category:...|sort_prefix]] in the wiki
code of a page (or when transcluding templates), the result text should NEVER
depend on the UI language (so if {{int:lang}} is used in that parameter, it
should evaluate always as if it was {{CONTENTLANGUAGE}}).
