@Doitsu

I surely would appreciate a locale-aware index order since, right now, I cannot see myself publishing a French book index with accented words placed at the end (à, â, é, è, ê, ô, ç, etc.really?) and I can't think of any French publisher who would accept to do it.

I will study your proposal and will need some time to test it.

As for the "refinements", yes this is extra-work for everybody not only the developers. The foreign words would need to be tagged with their own language which is rarely done. For a few words, this can be done manually. For me, I really don't push for it.
