No ! Normalized form take care of glyphs that really can be coded several different ways: for instance, latin e with acute accent may be directly coded as 'é', but in unicode, may also be coded as 'e' followed by the combining acute accent. These are really *two* ways to code *exactly* the same thing (on the displaying point of view: an 'e' with an acute accent above it). Hence normalization is needed to match both.
