Dan, it is not clear from the udns-02 document that the protocol
requires nameprep on the name server for every query. This is a
fairly important design choice of UDNS that should probably be
highlighted in the document. As you have seen, some people who
thought they were supporting udns-02 don't think this is such a great
idea, and it is quite controversial for name servers that run high
volumes of queries (like tens of thousands a second).
