The whole platform apart from JavaScript uses ASCII case-insensitivity, largely for historical reasons (code-point-for-code-point would be preferable). There's no reason to invoke complex algorithms to compare CSS identifiers as long as they are not necessitated elsewhere. I can see how this recommendation makes sense from an i18n perspective, but if you look at the platform holistically it does not seem needed and would in fact make the platform more inconsistent and less predictable. -- http://annevankesteren.nl/
