  Bernard and I had a long talk today about the NAI document.  There are
some clear points, but there is still one point which is unclear.

  It's not clear if the process of normalizing a realm name is
independent of Unicode version.  If it is, then proxies can happily
normalize what they get, and we don't care what endpoints produce.

  If it's dependent on Unicode version, then the only system capable of
normalizing the NAI is the endpoint which produces it.  And they don't
normalize NAIs now.

  We're trying to track down a definitive answer.
