Rhys,

Since Printable String doesn't include the ampersand,  I think it
is a relatively poor choice for an organizational name, although it
is one of the choices under DirectoryString. Teletex, aka T.61, seems 
to be much more flexible, especially when/if the nonspacing 
diacritical marks and secondary characters are supported.

You misunderstood me.  I was saying that for e-mail address -> DN 
translations according to my model, that I would stick to 
PrintableString because there is an existing defined encoding for that 
mapping.  For anything else, you are more than welcome to use T.61, 
UniversalString, etc.

Maybe I should have kept my mouth shut. :-)

Cheers,

Rhys.
