I'd like to see some attention given to how web content is structured so
that translated versions can be easily sorted linguistically.

Right now there is NO way to alphabetically sort HTML content except to
load it into a HTML editor and let a translator move the content about,
edit redundant entries and add required ones, depending on the language.
The dangers and costs involved are obvious.

In theory one might use the <xsl:sort> element as in XML combined with a
language attribute - unfortunately, right now it doesn't work too
well...:)

Regards

Ultan
