Classes of characters ignored during comparison at level 3. Setting
to a later value includes earlier values;
e.g. <literal>symbol</literal> also includes
<literal>punct</literal> and <literal>space</literal> in the
characters to be ignored. Key <literal>ka</literal> must be set to
<literal>shifted</literal> and key <literal>ks</literal> must be set
to <literal>level3</literal> or lower to take effect.

For many collation settings, you must create the collation with
<option>deterministic</option> set to <literal>false</literal> for the
setting to have the desired effect (see <xref
linkend="collation-nondeterministic"/>). Additionally, some settings
only take effect when the key <literal>ka</literal> is set to
<literal>shifted</literal> (see <xref
linkend="icu-collation-settings-table"/>).
