The case I'm thinking of is in Finnish (or at least represents my very
limited knowledge of Finnish). A colleague at Nokia remarked that the
sort order on the cell phone for contact names is not in the correct
order for Finnish. Some of the characters appear at the end of the sort
rather than in their correct positions for a native speaker of the
language.

We might use Bruce's idea of a language specific designator that would
save rearranging the sort order manually.
