Description

The current implementation of storerscp's --sort-on-patientname option seems to imply that the DICOM dataset is encoded using "ISO_IR 100" (aka ISO-8859-1 or Latin-1). Also ASCII (i.e. the default character repertoire) will work, others will certain not.

There should at least be a check on the Specific Character Set (0008,0005) used (and a warning if this is not the case). Ideally, there would be broader support for various (if not all) DICOM character sets.
