How can you define upper case of 'y' with diaeresis' in Dutch
context where

   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IJ_%28digraph%29
   (lowercase y with diaeresis), ij and Y, IJ are identical.

?

Note that upper case of 'y' with diaeresis' is not 'Y' with
diaeresis but plain 'Y' without diaeresis, because, unlike 'i'
and 'j', 'I' and 'J' do not have a dot in their character
shapes.

The example above is using only alphabetic Latin characters.

So, how can you define upper case of 'y' with diaeresis' in
Dutch context?

And, beyond Latin, how can you define similar equivalence,
which is necessary for TLD registration operation, of extended
case insensitivities?
