Not so. Normalisation is idempotent
Quite right. I should have said that normalization *checking* would be
impossible.
Agreed. C9 clearly specifies that a process cannot assume that another
process will give a correct answer to the question "is this string
normalised?", because that is to "assume that another process will make
a distinction between two different, but canonical-equivalent character
sequences."
