it's my understanding that Punycode's objective is to be "clean" with regards to things that match against the hostname character set, hence its pickup for IDN (where it's expected that DNS will be traversing all kinds of network middleware). a similar (obsolete) proposal was 7 bit-clean UTF-7. i don't see this as a necessity for this effort, as we have access to the entirety of the stack that'll be touching this material. it's just a matter of having that stack match, store, and display things properly. -- nick black -=- https://nick-black.com to make an apple pie from scratch, you need first invent a universe.
