title: String sort with special characters (ä, ö) in Flex/AS3
body: <p>is there any way to sort Strings correctly in different languages than English? In German we have Umlaute, and e.g. 'ä' should come right after 'a' in the ascending sort order.</p>
  
  <p>I am using ObjectUtil.stringCompare(), but it puts those special characters always to the end. Any ideas how to solve this? I thought the locale (de_DE) would take care of it, but it does not.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks,
  Martin</p>
