I used the wrong term. Sorry.

My point was not that TR#15 do the case folding. I more tried to make 
an example of what the IESG should do and what the Unicode Consortium 
should do. We already have (one kind of) case folding defined in the 
Unicode tables, and also normalization.

What we need to do is to put the pieces together, and still remember 
that we do one thing, and Unicode people another.

As soon as we have (unknown) overlap, I start to get nervous.
