Hi Gerd My view is that should work towards collator.compare everywhere, initially leaving the strength unchanged or to match usage elsewhere for similar entities. This might give slightly different results compared with MapInstall, but the question is "Does it work"?
If it doesn't, maybe the sortkeys will need extending to handle IDENTICAL. If it does work, then start fixing the reasons why SECONDARY can't work without other changes elsewhere.
