RFC 7991 Section 2.7.1-.3 (and a ton of “ascii” attributes patched into other places) says “ASCII”.  Not “strict ASCII”, but I don’t know the difference between the two.  RFC 7997 says ASCII or ASCII-only when it really is talking about “accessible to a reader familiar with the Latin writing system” (except maybe for Section 3.4); that is exactly the bug that I’m trying to address.

Of course, the Relax-NG in RFC 7991 doesn’t enforce that textual mandate, so no schema change is needed to fix this bug.

Grüße, Carsten
