In draft-ietf-precis-saslprepbis we have a profile for usernames, which
differs from the profile for localparts of JabberIDs defined in
draft-ietf-xmpp-6122bis in only one respect: the localpart profile
specifies case mapping whereas the username profile leaves decisions
about case mapping vs. case preservation up to the using application.
I am wondering whether it would make sense to define two username
profiles in draft-ietf-precis-saslprepbis: one that uses case mapping
(say, Usernamecasemapped) and one that uses case preservation (say,
Usernamecasepreserved). This seems cleaner to me, and would avoid the
need to define a separate profile in the XMPP specs (which might not be
where future protocol designers would look for a username construct).
Thoughts?
