Nope I haven't made any progress, and I actually did a bunch of tests of some
(honnestly not all locales) trying to get a representative set and could not
find differnce in ordering between locales generated with -m ${area}.

It would also needs lots of work on the generation tools.

I first need to write a tool that compares collation rules for various ${area}
(not done yet) to see how much this is really needed and use it in the
generation tools.

I will try to do that for 12 if it is really worth it (based on the result from
that comparison tools)

Best regards,
