Public bug reported:

Google Contacts has fields for "Phonetic first name" and "Phonetic last
name" which can be used to type a romanized spelling of a name in
another script that is used for sorting and speech recognition. I
especially appreciate the sorting. Unfortunately on my Ubuntu phone such
names end up at the bottom of the list instead and I can't even see the
romanized name in the details.

I also tried using the nickname field as a work-around but it's ignored
just the same.
