20:25 <TimToady> NFG gives us NFC compactness with NFD semantics by indirection
20:25 <diakopter> but what if the user wants it exactly as inputted
20:25 <diakopter> because of font differences, e.g.
20:25 <TimToady> we don't guarantee that unless they keep it in a buffer
20:25 <TimToady> or say 'use codepoints;' or some such
20:26 <diakopter> makes sense to me
20:26 <TimToady> we probably ought to be forcing all current programs to declare 'use codepoints' since that's what's currently implemented as defulat
20:26 <TimToady> *ault even
20:27 <TimToady> but I think we can get away with switching that as long as it's before 6.0.0
