There is cool stuff and there is annoying stuff to reproduce things like case-insensitive + ignore accents (utf8_general_ci) in Postgres. I've looked into FTS and searching for missing dictionaries to support all the locales but Chinese is one of the harder ones.

Problem is when your customers are global, all of a sudden a single customer can bring along multiple locales. I very much regret not taking localization far more seriously early in development but we were blindsided by the interest outside the Angleosphere.
