I agree.  I certainly understand the use case, but we've already seen
that we have some trouble due to the desire for multiple profiles.

I wonder though if we mightn't take a page from IDNA's playbook here.
One of the things IDNA did was to say, "Do some locale-sensitive
mapping before you get to the algorithm."  Couldn't this be a case for
that?  That is, half-width mapped to full width or something _before_
even starting on the string?
