Dear RSWG:

Section 3, 1st para says:

   The policy for the RFC Series is that all displayable text is allowed
   as long as the reader of an RFC can interpret that text.

The closest thing in RFC 7997 appears in Section 6, which says:

   The ability to use non-ASCII characters in RFCs in a clear and
   consistent manner will improve the ability to describe
   internationalized protocols and will recognize the diversity of
   authors.  However, the goal of readability will override the use of
   non-ASCII characters within the text.

I find the text in RFC 7997 to be more clear policy language; however, I think 
two changes are appropriate:

1) It should recognize the diversity of both authors and readers.

2) The final sentence should say that the readability takes priority over the 
character choice.

Russ
