[issue12735] request full Unicode collation support in std python library

[Guido van Rossum]

Guido van Rossum <guido at python.org> added the comment:

Sounds like a fair feature request for Python 3.3, as long as the intention is that users must import some module from the standard library and use functions defined in that module.  The operations and methods defined for str instances (e.g. ==, <, etc.) should not change their behavior.

Is there an existing 3rd party library that we could adopt (even if it isn't perfect yet)?
