.title() - annoying mistake

No, because it book ends the issue.

Upper - Converts everything to uppercase
Lower - Converts everything to lowercase

Title - Covers the cases in-between upper/lower.  

I’ll agree that if title was to respect language definitions, that there would be a problem here…  But it specifically states otherwise.

And as I mentioned the sheer amount of work that would be needed would probably cover a phd dissertation or more…  It’s a huge problem set to respect one language, let alone all languages.  

So the only answer is to not respect the languages, and leave that up to a later implementation or for someone else to assist in adding in support.

Heck, how do we prevent it from titlecasing abbreviations?  (This is plain text not XML….  If it was XML it would be easy!)
