Mentioned in my other email, but what collation order were you
proposing to use? Binary might be OK for unique keys but that doesn't
help you for '<', '>' etc.

My expectation (not the same as I'd like to see, necessarily, and not
that my opinion counts -- I'm not a developer) would be that each
database have a locale, and that this locale's collation order be used
for indexing, LIKE, '<', '>' etc. If you want to store data from
multiple human languages using a locale that has Unicode for its
character set would be appropriate/necessary.
