If you want to know WAY too much about how unicode characters are
ordered, you can take a gander at this:
http://www.unicode.org/unicode/reports/tr10/tr10-16.html
The summary: Outside of the characters A-Z, you cannot guarantee that
a particular locality will have a different way of ordering characters
than yours. The only reason A-Z are fixed is because of convention.

Hi!
When I sort these characters in an UTF-8 document . . .
, (comma = U+002C)
. (full stop = U+002E)
; (semicolon = U+003B)
. . . they end up like this:
, (comma)
; (semicolon)
. (full stop)
Why does the full stop take the last position when the semicolon has
a higher unicode code?
Thanks for input!
Best regards,
