Re: normalizing filenames and strings



Filenames could also be NFC normalized when created, although that's
not absolutely necessary.

It would be nice if gnome mandated a standard approach for normalization. Does everyone like NFC? (http://unicode.org/reports/tr15 for info.)

This could be fixed at a low level, in gtk filechooser for some cases
or in apps. Gnome-vfs should handle that too.

It would be nice if gnome-vfs could handle this in the background, so coders don't have to worry about uri escaping and normalization at the same time. (The existing normalization functions have to be used on unescaped URIs. It's already tricky enough keeping track of gnome-vfs escaping issues...)
