Yeah, that seems more sensible, avoids breaking a ton of URLs, and has
less potential for spoofing (given appropriate safeguards).

I don't buy the argument that then we should also alias 1 and l and o
and 0. Shawn's argument is about not making the status quo worse. We
could maybe make it better still, but that seems separate and given
what's deployed and relied upon unlikely.
