In fact, how do you even sort such a name that goes in both direction? > What does that even mean? Why is your software doing operations on people's names, beyond storing and retrieving them? A lot of software deals with text. I don't think every software should deal with the entirety of Unicode. There shouldn't be an expectation that all text editor should handle all Unicode. Just like I don't expect a Chinese keyboard and software should work for Latin keyboard and software. In my personal code editor, I handle text byte per byte, so text highlighting, reversing, lookup, etc are simple and efficient. Would it be a problem if I try to open a Chinese text? Yes, but I have accepted that it is a class of problem that I don't want to deal with. I have not seen an open source software that have gracefully handled Unicode, outside of Chrome or something really big. Pretty much every one of them is "errr how does this work again?". How many times have people simply split a text using whitespace? So lets just say I don't have confidence in people doing this correctly. I know I don't.
