That said, the Namespaces problem and the Selectors problem are similar problems (from opposite sides). As a result, we can either: 1. Require normalization of the namespace prefix in the document (i.e. EUN). Since the rest of CSS doesn't have this requirement, it seems futile or problematic to impose it on the namespace prefix. 2. Require namespace prefix matching to use normalization. See selector text in previous email for reasons why the WG is likely to prefer this. I rather doubt the WG will come to a different conclusion for namespaces. I do note that XML Namespaces (on which this is based) relies on RFC 3986 (i.e. URI rather than IRI). It might be a good idea to talk about IRIs and IRI equivalence in this document. While normalization is part of this discussion, the IRI problem goes beyond this.
