The title states this as one question, but it's really two.
First is an actual choice: Should the portable character names in the POSIX standard be recognized and translated by
lookup_collatename()
?Cons:
lookup_coolatename()
(see the end of Section 2 of N1623).Pro:

: Properly parse and match collating symbols and equivalences #5392, these names are the final puzzle piece to make a few more libcxx tests pass.The second question is a technical issue that I don't have an answer to yet: Can we actually access the set of locale-specific (multi-character) collating elements or recognize them in a reasonable way using some Windows API? Or is there some other reasonable approach to recognize locale-specific collating elements like "ch" in Czech or "dzs" in Hungarian?
