I'm sorry, I didn't raise that particular sub-case, because I thought
that it would follow out of a clearer explanation of the general case.
As you continue to insist that this area is all perfectly unusual, and
fits into an un-indented (in my view) reading of the
non-canonicalisation case (that an infinite variety of principals would
be generated on the KDC, that all happen to share the same underlying
identity/username/password), I'm trying to make clear that the Windows
behaviour is special, under-documented and unique.

As demonstration please examine that, along with the case transformation
for the realm, canonicalisation or not, if you kinit for
user@SHORTDOMAIN, the ticket returned is for [email protected].

Thanks,

Andrew Bartlett
