Are you fine with the suggested changes?

I don't feel strong and having some automatic sorting is nice. But ut as
a human, I note:

+ Kris Van Hees <[email protected]>
- Dominique d'Humieres <[email protected]>

Sorting 'Van Hees' under 'H' and 'd'Humieres' under 'd' feels
inconsistent - I'd either expected both under 'H' or both under 'd'/'V'.

Well, I just respect how the authors feel to be sorted:
Van Hees - under 'V'
d'Humieres - under H


Currently "d'H" is under "H" and "Van H" under "V", with your patch
"d'H" is under "d" and "Van H" under "H".

I fixed that in the updated version, please take a look.


But I admit that that's not clear and whether something like
de/von/van/Van is regarded as part of the family name for sorting or not
. (Not to talk about names like "Christophe Cartier Dit Moulin", which I
would sort under 'C(artier)'.)

That's why I added a few exceptions in order to respect their wish.

Somehow it feels odd to have the accented version after 'z' – it feels
more natural just to ignore the accent and order 'ó' and 'ö' after 'o'
and not after 'z'.

That's what Jakub is speaking about, I was also surprised about the sorting.
