Yes, it's not enabled by default. That should probably wait until the support is more
battle-tested :)
Can character mapping be also implemented here? For
example, in
Belarusian letter «Ґ» should be in the same section as «Г», and «Ў» in
the same section as «У». It's not an urgent request, just my
curiosity.
I created a testwiki in Belarussian with uca-be collation to test this:

It seems like Ґ and Г behave correctly. I don't know why Ў and У are separate;
probably most languages they're used in consider them entirely separate letters. This
is certainly doable, though; we simply need to make Ў not create a heading in the same way
we made ё create one; it should start sorting under У then. I didn't realize this kind
of behavior is possible :)
(If they are sorted / separated differently on your install, you probably need to run the
maintenance/languages/generateCollationData.php script - see
https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43740 .)
