When creating an alphabetical index by Insert->Indexes and Table->Indexes and
Table and selelect Type = "Alphabetical Index", you have an option to "Combine
identical entries" which is (IIRC) the default. When you use "Combine identical
entries", you have further options to "Combine identical entries with p or pp"
(which is the default) or "Combine with -".

However, some languages, at least Thai, don't have the concept of p and pp. In
the locale data, p and pp must be translated but it is impossible for the locale
that never use p/pp.

To make alphabetical index for such languages, one must disable "Combine
identical entries with p or pp" and maybe enable "Combine with -". This require
some knowledge about the options and make alphabetical index not work
out-of-the-box.

I suggest that the default for these options, should be able to be specified in
the locale data. So it is possible to choose the appropriate index format for
each locale.
