Scott, does this need to be addressed during WGLC for draft-levine-eaiauth?

Thanks.  It doesn't appear that it proposes any changes for SPF.  It merely
documents that non-ascii local parts don't match the related macros.
During the SPFbis working group we looked at this and explicitly decided on
it.  It's not by accident.

Since local part macros are very rarely used, it seemed like very much a
corner case not worth it to break the installed base over.

If there's going to be a charter change around this, I think it needs some
words to constrain the work to limit interoperability implications.

I know less about the implications for DKIM and DMARC, but would imagine
backward compatibility is important there too.
