Description
Let's get a simple object with Id and Indexed field called name. Then fill it with two lagnguage values (russian and english in my case). Now make a query like
query().order(CallTheme_.name).build().subscribe().observer ...
The result is shown in application screenshot and you can see that case insensitive collation order for english language is different that a collation order for russian, i.e. did't work for russian either.
