Note with my example sort key format, compatible with collation :

I gave "cle !élc !Clé" as a french collation key for "Clé" (remember, here
the level separator is " !", i.e. space+first non space, because MediaWiki
drops multiple spaces : this sequence is not needed for any primary level key
because the punctuation is normally dropped at this level and replaced by
spaces, then sequences of spaces are packed to single one)

But nothing prohibits you to use this format instead: "c le !élc !Clé"

i.e. with an extra space separator between the firstChar() and the rest of the
primary-level key.
This space is enough to generate the section titles in categories (so here it
will effectively sort in section "c"...


For the Breton example, "Christian" will give this collation key : "ch ristian
!naitsirch !Christian"

(note that Breton also uses accents and treat them like in French
dictionnaries, in reversed order at the secondary level, i.e. from the last
letter or digram or trigram, to the first one), so it will be displayed in
section "ch", and not "c".
