Description

Term names that start with characters other than letters from the modern Latin alphabet (a-z without accents) or numbers break break alphabetical lists. I have committed a partial solution; A lot of special characters are now possible due to character transliteration to the modern Latin alphabet using the same i18n-ascii.txt file Pathauto uses (Please make sure to set character encoding to UTF-8 when viewing this file or all you'll see is some character rubbish).

A more extensive fix for this problem is still being thought about.

The pager for alphabetical indices was also having trouble with this. Since PHP does not yet support sorting unicode characters you would get a pager with the following letters in this exact order: E, S, T, É, ß. I have now fixed this by using a customised sorting method. The previously mentioned sequence will now be displayed as E, É, S, ß, T, for instance.

No more problems, so it's fixed.
