I would handle the cases as the case may be if
such collations are available.
You can develop the code applicable for the
restricted cases where the equality induced
by the collation is equivalent to the binary
equality, can't you ?
BTW you seem to be too inclined to the locale
support. How can we unify the collation support
(possibly introduced in the near future) and
the locale support ?
