as the C forms consist of de-composition followed by composition.
So it would be strange to implement NFC, and not implement NFD.
I see. I never looked at it that way. I always thought that
de-composition was the hard way, and never realized that you
actually needed to de-compose before you can compose. But
come to think of it, it sounds rather logical.
Hmm, that sounds counter-intuitive towards the fact that the
W3C committee for XPath decided that only NFC be mandatory.
The fact that the specification describes the process in this way doesn't
mean the implementation has to work this way.
And remember (as would-be contributors to Saxon often seem to forget) that
testing is more work than coding.
