Strongly suggest you to modify the sorting method of Chinese items

I cannot bear the terrible sorting of my items in Chinese anymore. Indeed, I know much of you who live in North America or other regions in which people speak Romance Languages cannot understand how to sort Chinese characters from A to Z and I noticed that previous complaint about the same problem are attributed to the system API simply (ref. https://discussions.agilebits.com/discussion/79290/improve-order-of-lists-with-chinese-characters). Thus, here are some operable suggestions rather than complaints.

First of all, the base of sorting is Pinyin which can convert Chinese to English word by word (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinyin). Many developers never heard of Romanization because it is a concept in linguistics. Then, if you have an English word of Chinese character by conversion, it's easy to sort them by alphabet.

In Java, there is Collator.compare() to suppot Pinyin sorting, and M$ also support it in Windows (see also. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/globalization/locale/sorting-and-string-comparison). I am not familiar with Mac OS/iOS, but I believe you can find some demo cases in Github even if Apple cannot provide official solutions.

And such problem also existed in early Windows 10, so it's not a big deal. But If you can fix it up in future, it will be comfortable for Chinese users to avoid skim an encyclopedia each time.

BTW, 1Password on other platforms has this problem too, and I hope you can tell them about this.

Regards.
