  When people enter passwords, the pop-up window often says "CASE
SENSITIVE", and "Make sure you don't have CAPS-LOCK pressed".

  Servers don't currently normalize passwords to do case-insensitive
comparisons.  I don't see why they would need to normalize passwords for
composed/decomposed characters.
