Alexey and I are working on an I-D to replace SASLprep (RFC 4013). One
issue we found is that, in RFC 4013, spaces were allowed in usernames. I
know the framework document now allows spaces in passphrases, but I'm
wondering if we also want to allow spaces in usernames. Something to
discuss in Paris, perhaps...
