In order to work, the actual name must be preserved, or if translated, must be a reversible, 1-to-1 translation. A lot of discussion here has talked about reversible translations, but haven't noted the requirement that it be 1-to-1... and if the translation produces something that looks like it could be a file name, then the reverse translation is unlikely to be 1-to-1! Somewhere, you need to add a flag that indicates whether or not a reverse translation needs to be done, independently of the content of the translated name.
That's not true. Both the U+0000 and UTF-8b proposals are 1-to-1 transforms.
