Although it is a nice clarification, I don't think the spec currently precludes the usage of titlecase for the 'capitalize' value. The text refers explicitly and normatively to the Unicode-casing data which includes titlecase. But I agree it could be clarified in the text.

In the definition of what capitalize does shouldn't it be changinging the first letter of each word to what Unicode calls titlecase? For most characters this is the same as uppercase but for some letters such as U+01F3, the two are distinct with the uppercase being U+01F1 and the titlecase being U+01F2. (U+01F1 looks like "DZ", U+01F2 looks like "Dz", and U+01F3 looks like "dz".) I hope its not too late for this change to be made.
