Hi,

This is offtopic (I've replied for the main story yet), but

you'd like to be careful to use String.Compare() since it is
culture-sensitive comparison by default. In that case,
CompareOrdinal() leads you to the right way.

We don't use collation now but it will be supported in the
near future (I hope ;-)

Maybe I need to audit those culture-sensitive things on all
the libraries, including sys.xml (I once did in response
to Jackson's advisory but I think we need further check).
