Note that there is some support via ApplicationInfo::localeSort() depending on the platform you are 
on. Unfortunately Qt does not yet support ICU based collation on all platforms (at least last time I 
checked, 5.5.x) and falls back to posix, which only works for English. localeSort() works fine on 
Linux and via a JNI-wrapper around Java Collator classes on Android, the latter works probably only 
for locales installed on a resp. device. AFAIK other platforms are untested.
