+ Character conversions like case folding or Hiragana to Katakana.
+
+ <p> Transliteration is a character to character conversion but it is
+ not always a one to one mapping between characters. Transliteration
+ modules are primarily used by collation, and search and replace
+ modules to perform approximate search. It can also be used to format
+ the numbers in different numbering systems. </p>
+
+ <p> In order to select transliteration modules for different
+ purposes, they are classified with attributes of
+ TransliterationType. </p>
+
+ <p> For Western languages there would be three transliteration
+ modules available to compare two mixed case strings: upper to lower,
+ lower to upper, and ignore case. </p>
+
+ <p> A typical calling sequence of transliteration is
+ <ol>
+ <li> getAvailableModules() </li>
+ <li> loadModulesByImplNames() </li>
+ <li> equals() </li>
+ </ol>
+ or another one is
+ <ol>
+ <li> loadModule() </li>
+ <li> transliterate() </li>

+ * All the IGNORE-type functionalities (Range, equals) are based on mapping.
+ * except equals() method in IGNORE_CASE, which is based on Locale-independent
+ * case folding
+ * ( This second assumption is very complicated and may cause confusion of use)
+ *
+ * 1.
+ * We are assuming Upper to Lower mapping as one of transliteration.
+ * The mapping depends on Locale.
+ * Upper <-> Lower methods are just wrappers to provide equals() and Range()
+ *
+ * 2.
+ * equals() in IGNORE_CASE module is locale-independent and
+ * we don't provide locale-sensitive ones.
+ * The reason we provided locale-independent ones is that IGNORE_CASE is mainly
+ * dedicated to StarOffice internal code.
+ *
+ * 3.
+ * TransliterationModules is used just for convenience without calling
+ * getAvailableModule.
+ *
+ * 4.
+ * Implementation name in the methods below is not the same as
+ * the true implementation name registered.
+ * In particular, for generic modules:"UPPERCASE_LOWERCASE",
+ * "LOWERCASE_UPPERCASE", "IGNORE_CASE", there is no registered name.
