Problem

Library listings sorted names with COLLATE NOCASE, which folds ASCII only. The scanner's canonical_name / canonical_title keep their accents, so an artist or album starting with an accented letter ("Émilie Simon", "Ödland") sorted after Z, while the A-Z rail files it under its base letter. With the unified library, a local accented name and its mirrored counterpart (whose sort key is already folded by normalize_name) also landed in two different places.

Fix

  • New waveflow_core::repository::sqlite::collation: a FOLD collation that compares case- and accent-folded first, using the same fold as normalize_name (now pub(crate) helpers), then breaks ties on lowercase and bytes so the order stays total and stable between queries. No allocation per comparison.
  • Registered on every profile-pool connection (profile_db::open).
  • Name listings switch to COLLATE FOLD: albums, artists, tracks (title / artist / album and the default order), genres, the artist and genre detail pages, search suggestions, the folder browser's order, and the core SqliteTrackRepository. Paths, codecs, musical keys and the folder grouping keep NOCASE.
  • No migration, no new dependency.

A query naming FOLD on a connection that did not register it fails to prepare, so the test pools that run listings (browse, inventory, the core track repository) register it too.

Tests

  • Core: ordering, total-order tie-breaks (precomposed vs decomposed), non-Latin scripts, and a real SQLite sort through the registered collation.
  • App (browse): against the migrated schema, artists list as Aphex Twin (remote), Björk, Émilie Simon, Zazie, and albums by title likewise.

Docs: library.md describes the collation; RFC-005 no longer claims the local canonical forms fold accents.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Améliorations
    • Le tri alphabétique des albums, artistes, pistes et dossiers ignore désormais les différences de casse et d’accents.
    • Les critères de tri numériques et l’ordre des résultats de recherche restent inchangés.

COLLATE NOCASE folds ASCII only and the scanner's canonical forms keep their
accents, so an artist starting with an accented letter sorted after Z while
the A-Z rail filed it under its base letter. A FOLD collation, registered on
the profile pool, compares case- and accent-folded first (the fold the remote
sort keys use), then breaks ties on case and bytes so the order stays total.
Name listings use it; paths, codecs and grouping keep NOCASE.

CodeRabbit blocks several paths by default. You can override this behavior by explicitly including those paths in the path filters. For example, including **/dist/** will override the default block on the dist directory, by removing the pattern from both the lists.

La collation SQLite FOLD ignore les accents dans le tri initial, puis départage les égalités par la forme accentuée et la chaîne originale. Plusieurs tris textuels l’utilisent désormais. Les tris numériques et certains usages de NOCASE restent inchangés.

Change: Bug fix

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to ddaf7

The documentation now describes how local and remote names are sorted together. No actionable merge-blocking issue remains after normal checks.

Security Architecture Review

Security architecture risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to ddaf7

The inspected change affects library ordering without changing stored identities or access authority. Production connections register the new comparison before use, and the unchanged database schema supports rollback.

Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The supported propagation is across profile-backed listing and track queries. Metadata values can affect returned order, but the inspected change does not give those values a new identity-selection or authorization role.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — Presentation folding remains separate from identity enforcement: changed queries use FOLD for ordering, while canonical identity constraints retain their existing comparison behavior.

Décrivez séparément les clés locales et distantes.

Le miroir utilise normalize_name, pas le canonical_name du scanner. FOLD s’applique ensuite au tri. Le repli vers les valeurs d’affichage vient de COALESCE, pas de FOLD.

Correction proposée
-  that (`COLLATE NOCASE` is ASCII-only), so
-  sorting the remote half on its raw display name puts "Björk" and "bjork" in
-  two different places and splits one artist in half down the middle of the
-  list. `remote_album.sort_title` / `sort_artist` therefore carry the same
-  normalised forms, computed by the mirror with the same function. A row
-  mirrored before those columns existed falls back to its display title, and
-  one walk fills it in.
+  that (`COLLATE NOCASE` is ASCII-only). The mirror computes
+  `remote_album.sort_title` with `normalize_name(sort_name or title)` and
+  `sort_artist` with `normalize_name(artist)`. These are not the local
+  `canonical_*` forms: `normalize_name` folds common Latin diacritics and
+  expands `&` to "and", while the scanner keeps diacritics and treats `&` as
+  a separator. The unified query orders the projected keys with `COLLATE FOLD`.
+  For older rows, `COALESCE` uses the display title and artist; a mirror walk
+  fills the sort columns.

@InstaZDLL InstaZDLL self-assigned this Oct 5, 2026
FOLD now decomposes (NFD) and drops the marks, so letters outside the normalize_name table (R with caron, S with cedilla, Vietnamese) sort with their base letter; stroked letters NFD leaves whole get a small table. ASCII pairs skip the decomposition. Docs say the keys sort together rather than compare equal.

@coderabbitai On the RFC-005 outside-diff comment: fixed in ddaf79e. The section now distinguishes the local canonical_* keys (accents kept) from the remote sort_title / sort_artist (normalize_name, accents folded), says the unified query orders the projected keys with COLLATE FOLD, and that COALESCE supplies the display title and artist for rows mirrored before the sort columns existed. It also says the keys sort together rather than compare equal, since FOLD breaks ties on case and bytes.

@InstaZDLL Merci pour les précisions. Le passage du RFC-005 confirme la correction : accents conservés dans les clés locales, accents repliés dans les clés distantes, tri avec COLLATE FOLD et repli avec COALESCE. Le texte décrit bien un rapprochement dans l’ordre de tri, pas une égalité des clés. Le commentaire est traité.

Learning: Dans WaveFlow, docs/rfcs/RFC-005-remote-source-and-sync-v2.md distingue les clés locales album.canonical_title et artist.canonical_name, qui conservent les accents, des clés distantes remote_album.sort_title et sort_artist, calculées avec normalize_name, qui replient les accents et développent & en « and ». La requête unifiée trie les clés projetées avec COLLATE FOLD. Cette collation rapproche les variantes dans l’ordre de tri sans les rendre égales, grâce aux critères de départage. COALESCE fournit le titre et l’artiste affichés lorsque les clés distantes sont NULL pour les lignes synchronisées avant l’ajout des colonnes de tri.
