There is a potential problem were we to widen the scope by adopting
LangSortOrder.

There are some alphabets with letters that have two characters!

Not to mention that there are scripts that use non-alphabet writing systems.
(Syllabaries, Abudiga, Ideogram, etc) 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Writing_system

Consider the Welsh alphabet with 29 letters.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welsh_orthography

Eight of these single letters are digraphs containing two characters.

LangSortOrder as it's currently designed would simply not cope with Welsh
because of these digraphs.

Best regards,

David
