@tidoust There are a number of issues that _could_ arise, but these would depend on implementation details. As long as the spec doesn't make normative statements about the presentation of the list, though, I'm not sure you need to enumerate what all of the potential problems are. Which is why the issue basically asks "should there be something here?". I'm not sure that there should be. The main issues for presentation of individual display names would be language and direction metadata. These ought to be provided so that font selection/fallback works appropriately (language) and so that mixed direction display names are correctly formatted (direction). However, if I recall correctly, we've dealt with those in separate issues. Lack of local fonts for displaying characters is a problem that can arise but not something your spec can really address either: it is just a general problem for user agents. Of the other issues that occur to me, sorting of the list is probably the main I18N issue that implementers might trip over. Unicode code point order is not a particularly user-friendly sorting, but proper collation involve the user's locale expectations. But your spec is silent about how the list is presented. I'd suggest leaving well enough alone and would suggest you close the issue. -- GitHub Notification of comment by aphillips Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/presentation-api/issues/315#issuecomment-225911007 using your GitHub account
