I guess that makes sense (but in some ways it seems a bit backwards
-- English doesn't have extended characters (with rare exceptions,
and in those cases it's usually a reflection of the foreign origin of
the word, so accents are often dropped). But I can see that since
these extended characters are not "English", one could also argue
that they should sort differently (or sort different, if you're a Mac
user :->) from non-accented characters.
Thanks,
Jon
