Better not even think about saying anything about normalization,

hi Nico, I assume you talk about case normalization now. I
also agree we need not to say anything about it - and we don't aside
from "case normalization" as defined in 6.2.2.1 of RFC 3986 where only
the following sections are relevant to us:
No, I meant Unicode normalization. It's a messy business. Better say
nothing, because I think the thing to do is obvious enough, but if we
must say anything, it's that the various strings (e.g., token manuf)
are to be compared normalization-insensitively.
