This is perhaps a bit oversimplified. Processes that do searching and
sorting on Unicode text should be able to work with text in any
normalization form, converting to and from NFD as necessary. They
shouldn't be constrained to operating correctly only on text that is
already in NFD, which is the impression I got from Robert.
