I think that I did test collation when it was implemented. I have been showing
it off to people. I will have to go back to old versions to see if they work.

I am attaching a test case, in both ODS and PDF format. If you look at the PDE,
you will see the tailoring sequence in column three. Column for is the same
sequence of characters (dependent vowels) sorted by calc. You can see that the
first character in the sequence has been passed to be the LAST character, the
rest of the sequence is respected.

Basically, what the sequence is saying is that in Khmer, the combination of a
vowel and the sign that looks like a colon should not be sorted after each
vowel, but all single vowels should be sorted first, and then you repeat the
whole sequence of vowels, if they are followed by the colon character.

These are dependent vowels. When you disply them alone, without a consonant, a
circle is palced in the location where the consonant would be if it was there.

Looking at columns one and two for a number of character combination, I start a
sequence of words with a consonant. If I have two times the same consonant (the
first consonant of the language) it should come right after the single consonant
when sorting correctly. Any words that have a vowel attached to the first
consonant should be listed afterwards.

But this does not happen. My conclusion is that all the composed vowels that are
in the sequence are being sorted SECONDARILY, as if they were accents or marks,
anf therefore thay are compared to the empty single consonant, and not to the
consonant with a simpler vowel (which should come first it these composed vowels
were primarily sorted).

My impression is that the sequence is being sorted secondarily, and that the
first vowel in the series (which I called the anchoring point, because all
things should be listed after it) is not being taken into account.

I believe that the sequence is correct.

I am nevertheless testing a coplete sequence that includes all the variables.
Again, it will not work if the vowels are sorted secondarily. The new sequence
will be included in Pavel's build for 2.2.1RC3 and I will be able to test it 
soon.
