[opencms-dev] How to make the OpenCms Explorer sort file names case-insensitively (like it does with titles)?

Hi,
In my OpenCms 19 installation, I’ve noticed that the Explorer (content browser under .content/...) sorts items differently depending on the column:

  *
When sorting by Title, the order is case-insensitive, which feels natural.
  *
But when sorting by Name, the order is case-sensitive, so files like appear A* - B* -  Z* - a*  - b*... z*

Is there any way to configure the Explorer so that sorting by Name also ignores case?
Does this depend on the database collation, the Solr index, or is it handled internally by the workplace UI? I have tried changing type of filename from  String to text_general but it doesn't work
Thanks in advance,
- Ramón G.
