I think having nameprep done in applications will break things.
If you do: nslookup Www.cisco.com
you get as an answer:
Name: WWW.cisco.com
Address: 198.133.219.25
If you do: nslookup Www.cisco.com
you get as an answer:
Name: Www.cisco.com
Address: 198.133.219.25
If you had nameprep in nslookup the answer in both cases would be:
Name: www.cisco.com
Address: 198.133.219.25
This will break all scripts calling nslookup and the doing simple
string matching in the answer to test the result.
I am sure there are lots of scripts that expect this behaviour.
