Hoi, The rules for collation are indeed per language and they are defined in the CLDR or the Common Locale Data Repository. CLDR data is already used in some of the extensions developed at translatewiki,net.. Maintaining CLDR data only once makes sense imho. Thanks, GerardM

This can be done with bots, for sure, if we agree that it should be done. Is this something we should strive for? Has any language of Wikipedia (or Wikinews or...) already started to do this?
Perhaps each language.php could define a function to transform the titles from whatever rules its language uses to ones sorting 'right' in binary mysql.
