3.2.3.8 Embedding custom non-visible data with the data-* attributes
http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/elements.html#embedding-custom-non-visible-data-with-the-data-attributes
There is a note that reads:
--
All attributes on HTML elements in HTML documents get ASCII-lowercased
automatically, so the restriction on ASCII uppercase letters doesn't affect
such documents.
--
Later in the section there are several references to ASCII-lowercasing and
ASCII-uppercasing operations. There is no discussion of how to handle non-ASCII
Unicode values (the wisdom of any such appearing in this context is, of course,
open). Default Unicode case folding might be a good idea here, though, if such
values are expected to occur?

This is just for names, not values. Ideally there'd be no folding at all, it's
just we're required to for legacy compat.

(I should probably make it clearer that this is for names, not values.)
