Re: UTF-8 NFC vs NFD compression, French sample (was: Updated Binary Optimized Header Encoding Draft)

I don't recommend using NFD. My rain for this is simple: the majority of
input modes produce NFC, thus too many libraries were coded to deal
primarily or only with pre-composed sequences -- throwing NFD at then can
cause trouble, so I'd rather avoid it.

(My experience here comes from HFS+'s conversion of file names to NFD on
create.)
