Not worry to much about efficiency in a first pass

Sounds good to me. I can contribute a test case for measuring performance:

1. Use the YSA thesaurus as data set: 
http://api.finto.fi/download/ysa/ysa-skos.ttl

2. Execute the following query that lists all the labels beginning with the 
letter T, ordered alphabetically:

{noformat}
PREFIX skos: <http://www.w3.org/2004/02/skos/core#>
SELECT ?label
WHERE {
  ?conc a skos:Concept .
  ?conc skos:prefLabel|skos:altLabel ?label .
  FILTER(STRSTARTS(LCASE(?label), "t"))
} 
ORDER BY ?label
{noformat}

There are around 3500 such labels and this query takes a bit less than 2 
seconds for me currently. The results are of course not properly collated; the 
previous examples of invalid Finnish collation are all within this result set.

Ideally, the query shouldn't take much longer with proper collation, but we'll 
see.

> As [discussed|http://markmail.org/message/v2bvsnsza5ksl2cv] on the users 
> mailing list in October 2016, I would like to change ARQ collation of literal 
> values to be language-aware and respect language-specific collation rules.
> This would probably involve changing at least the 
> [NodeUtils.compareLiteralsBySyntax|https://github.com/apache/jena/blob/master/jena-arq/src/main/java/org/apache/jena/sparql/util/NodeUtils.java#L199]
>  method.
> It currently sorts by lexical value first, then by language tag. Since the 
> collation order needs to be stable across all possible literal values, I 
> think the safest way would be to sort by language tag first, then by lexical 
> value according to the collation rules for that language.
> But what about subtags like {{@en-US}} or {{@pt-BR}}? Can they have different 
> collation rules than the main language? It would be a bit strange if all 
> {{@en-US}} literals sorted after {{@en}} literals...
> It would be good to check how Dydra does this and possibly take the same 
> approach. See the message linked above for further backgound.
> I've been talking with [~kinow] about this and he may be interested in 
> implementing it.
