the idea is nice, but what if i don't want to use forms for this?
the point is,that in my opinion, 99% of all developers want to have
their unicode-data normalized, before they process it. (maybe they
don't know yet that they want it, but they want it :-)
there's simply no need to be able to differentiate between NFC and NFD
strings except when you are writing an application especially for
unicode-related-work. if there are any other situations, please tell me.
so, because the general case is the developer-does-not-care-about-it,
we should make it easy to do in django. imho, of course.
