Collections starting with lowercase letters should be alongside uppercase-starting collections
I think we probably want to fix this, but it's a bit high effort (realm doesn't support ignoring case natively, so we're going to have to take things into our own hands).

This completely threw me off for some time time and I had thought that Lazer wasn't properly importing my collections. Currently in Stable, collections are primarily sorted in alphabetical order from A to Z, regardless of capitalization.
However, in Lazer, capitalization is considered, which flings lowercase collections after uppercase Z. Not only does it not follow Stable behaviour, it's also not really intuitive in a general sense.
(On a smaller note, the ordering for special characters are completely different as well, but this I'm more tolerant to since there's not really a predefined intuitive order for them anyway.)
