The RADEXT WG is in the last stages of publishing the updated NAI
document:

This defines a standard for "username@realm" handling, where "realm"
is a fully qualified hostname. It would be useful to reference that
from the saslprepbis document.
What kind of reference do you have in mind? Perhaps a pointer from
Section 3.4 ("Application-Layer Constructs")?
Yes. Just another indication that there are applications using the
constructs.
OK. I thought of some good text for this in the middle of the night but
I neglected to write it down. :( I'll work to add something in the next
version.
I've just reviewed the NAI specification. Although it does directly not
address issues such as width mapping, case mapping, and Unicode
normalization (seemingly inheriting its handling of those issues from
RFC 5335 for the username portion and from IDNA2008 for the realm
portion), as far as I can see it is compatible with saslprepbis.
Thanks. RFC 4282 did address many of those issues, and the conclusion
was it's recommendations were wrong. This document addresses the issues
by pointing to other documents.
An eminently sensible approach, I think.
