Nice to see you've got an open mind. Experts agree with you, users don't.
A simple life is an easy one, neh?

Nope. I wrote that there is a question to the editors (of IDNA etc, not
you and Zita, that would be a waste of time) on the ability to accomodate
two divergent requirements in one set of texts.

What I suggest is that reordering is manditory, and having shoved in the
complexity for DOM policy evaluation in two browsers recently, complexity
is a case I haven't seen made yet, except nominally, by those who hope to
put the IDN solution in applications.

I could be wrong, and someone with clue could have a case history to cite,
with lines of code, text/data/bss numbers, and performance data, and that
would be worth being wrong just to see, instead of the usual diet of IDN
drek.

How erratically polite.
