Yes. Or warn about it.

Yes, but not necessarily everywhere.

<bcp14> was not added just for rendering, but also so that tools could
extract information about normative requirements.

I just don't see how detecting the keywords will work reliably if it
requires converting an essentially open-ended set of Unicode characters
(given that the set of whitespace characters can be extended).

If the sole reason for this change is to avoid breaking up MUST_NOT (and
friends), why not hard-wire that into the renderers (for HTML, I believe
it could be done with CSS...)? That will at least create consistency,
and avoid yet another task to deal with during AUTH48.
