This concerns the index pages, when searching page names by prefix. There are also specific issues on the interpretation of these prefixes (due to the possible presence of contractions or expansions, including in the DUCET, or in the CLDR "root" locale).

The name of this bug is gather general. It basically requests the sorting system (bug 30673) to be used in various places other than category member sorting (for which it should also be used).

Rephrasing to be a tracker bug for places where the sorting should be used.
