[TCLCORE] TIP 241 underspecified

[Donald A. <as...@tr...>]

When TIP 241 was announced I sent a question about the action of 
[lsort -nocase] and never got an answer (one reply, but no answer)
Joe English raised the same point:

The sort order for [lsort -nocase] really needs to be specified
before it can be incorporated into the Tcl language!

What will be the result of 
lsort -nocase -ascii {A Z a z \[ \\ \] _ ~ |}

By observation, [lsort -dictionary], sorts all the letters after 
the [ \ ] and _ characters.  If that is the intended action, then
it should be specified. (And [lsort -dictionary] should also be 
so documented.)

What about non-ascii [lsort -nocase]?
