how would you implement this normalizer?
...used throughout the application I was thinking on some sort
of generator whose usage would be:
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
normalize_for_sorting :surname
end
The intention is not to modify surname, we need it in the views,
normalize_for_sroting would generate a method
User#surname_for_sorting and configure it as a creation/finding
filter that applies the necessary tr///. The aim is:
* We normalize the strings once and store them in
attributes instead of applying the normalizer
in all sort blocks
* The tr///, the configuration of filters, etc. is
written in on...
