Error when sorting column containing a unicode character and a null value

I'm getting an error when trying to sort on a column that contains one row with a null value, and one row with a unicode character (a German u with an umlaut in this case). If I give the null field a value, or replace the unicode character with a plain ASCII "u", it works fine, but if I have both, I get an error. Is that a bug, or have I missed something out?

Thank you for letting me know about that!
I've committed a fix along with your test case, so hopefully that won't creep in again!
With that change, your example works as expected. I'm planning to do a 2.1.7 release later today which will include this change.

Awesome, thank you!
