[openstack-dev] [nova] NLS support for database collators

Hello,
We are trying to understand how the various GET REST APIs handle
sorting/filtering in different NLS environments. For example, when
retrieving sorted String data (ie, display name), the order of the results
should vary based on the NLS of the caller (as opposed to having everything
sorted in English).
For Nova, the instances database has a "vm_state" column and the value is
an English string (ie, "active", "error"). Is this value an NLS-key or the
actual text that would be exposed to the caller?
Is there any existing collator support for sorting based on locale?
Links to any documentation or previous discussions would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Steven Kaufer
