up under "W".
That's totally orthogonal and is like a one-line change. Probably you
just have to change getPrefixedDBkey() to getDBkey() somewhere.

Could you point me to an example of some pages and categories where
this is an issue? I'm not clear on how categories/pages/sort keys are
being used here.
If it's sorted as starting with "a" it
should appear under "a". The
alternative would be to have different explicit sorting for the
sections in the category than for the words in the section, which I
think is unnecessary.
So if we have three pages "Áa", "Ab", "Ác" and they're
sorted in the
category in that order, should they be in one section? I don't see
how you'd put them in two or three sections. If they're in one
section, what letter do you use for it, "Á" or "A"? We can figure
out
"A" is correct here, but how do you do that in general automatically?
