Yey, I'm for it :)
Especially if it means dropping the rather naïve canonicalize function
that can't canonicalize an ASCII character with a non-ASCII character.

I think a compliant implementation should (read: ought to) already get
that example, since "στιγμας".toUpperCase() == "ΣΤΙΓΜΑΣ".toUpperCase()
in the browsers I have checked, and the ignore-case canonicalization
is based on toUpperCase. Alas, most of the implementations miss it
anyway.
