The feature to eliminate the prefixes from sorting (originally reported 
by myself and implemented in changeset 19005 and a few revisions later, 
with a database entry) as well as some other fixes. Since I use CentOS 
and the ATrpms version I would love to see them backported so they can 
be implemented in the 0.21 RPM they create.

Backporting would save me from manually updating every time or building 
everything myself (although I can generate a patch that most likely 
would apply clean(ish) to the MythWeb source tree as it is only plain text).

Kind regards,

Jonathan
