right. I was talking about deliberate exposure of an ACE, not accidental
exposure of an ACE. I don't think that many people will deliberately
show people ACE names (say on a business card) and expect people to
type them in. They'll either show the native form of the name, or they'll
show an ASCII DNS name, or both.
