I would like to determine what the alphabet for a given locale is, preferably based on the browser Accept-Language header values. Anyone know how to do this, using a library if necessary ?

take a look at [LocaleData.getExemplarSet][1]
for example for english this returns abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz
