If I recall correctly, Hans wanted to support it later, but didn't do so
until now. -- I think the problem with xindy is that there isn't a windows
version (to say nothing about a Mac) and that it isn't included in teTeX
or in the Linux distributions (correct me, if I'm wrong).

Since PERL does a good work on strings, PERL 5.6 does even work with
UNICODE, I think it is feasable to do it in texutil.

Tobias
