I'd like to suggest adding some names that are not equivalent as well,
like:

"\u212B" (ANGSTROM SIGN: Å)
"\u00C5" (LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A WITH RING ABOVE: Å)
"A\u030A" (LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A, COMBINING RING ABOVE: Å)
"\u00E5" (LATIN SMALL LETTER A WITH RING ABOVE, å)

and if we could put *&!@# non-ASCII7 characters in an RFC, that would
actually make sense to the reader.
