It *will* be superseded, once the précis working group has some output and
the XMPP working group pulls that output in and makes it fit into our world.
I wouldn't expect that for 1.5-2 years still, since the précis stuff is so
hard.

At that point, the transition will start, but that will take another couple
of years, I bet.

Having a ticket to track this one day makes sense.  Supporting
draft-ietf-xmpp-address for the moment is the right way to go.  The hardest
part of stringprep is NFKC, which you get from NSString's
precomposedStringWithCompatibilityMapping method.
