Re: [Ltru] Consensus call: extlang

["Mark Davis" <[e-mail]>]

I haven't looked at the exact language around this that we have already, but
I think we should clearly state (if we don't already) that for any cases
where we have such equivalences, implementations SHOULD treat them as the
same on input. (They may do this by internally converting one way or the
other, but that's not our business.)
