Ryan Blue commented on PARQUET-686:
-----------------------------------

The standard I found is ICU 54: 
http://userguide.icu-project.org/collation/api#TOC-Instantiating-the-Predefined-Collators

I agree that we should support what SQL engines do, but I don't agree that 
they've necessarily chosen an appropriate or "correct" one. What they do is 
widely used enough to be a de-facto standard, but I don't think that should 
preclude supporting other standards.

> BinaryStatistics currently only have a min/max, which are compared as signed 
> {{byte[]}}. However, for real UTF8-friendly lexicographic comparison, e.g. 
> for string columns, we would want to calculate the BinaryStatistics based off 
> of a comparator that treats the bytes as unsigned.
