r12a has just created a new issue for 
https://github.com/w3c/charmod-norm:

== definition of grapheme ==
http://www.w3.org/TR/2015/WD-charmod-norm-20150721/#def-grapheme-cluster

[1]
"A grapheme is a sequence of one or more Unicode characters that form 
a single user-perceived "character"."

how about: 

"A grapheme is a sequence of one or more Unicode characters in 
visually rendered text that a typical user would perceive as being a 
single unit in the writing system."

[2]
"grapheme cluster, which roughly corresponds to the user's perception 
of where the character boundaries occur in a visually rendered text"

how about:

"grapheme cluster, which is an approximation to sequences it is 
expected that a user would perceive as graphemes"


[3]
we should mention that we assume the extended grapheme clusters
