Or more than that,
assume that you'll have to sort the names of authors according to
surnames and the name "A. J. Dijon" appeared in the list how should
the "ij" be interpreted as Dutch "y" as spanish "ij" or as two
separate letters - well that depends on the origin of Mr. Dijon so
you'll probably have to have some semantic put into the list of names
to make it work like "A. J. Dijon (<national-code>)", and probably you
will have to use specialized tools to sort such a list so ...
International collating sequence may be a good thing but we need more
than that to make it work.
