Maybe we should try to say what we want to achieve, not details that are hard 
to get right.

Why do we want author and org names in an RFC?
So that readers can correlate this RFC with other work by that author.
They need to be able to approximately read the name, and be able to keep in 
memory what they saw.
That is all the point.
(Of course, there is also the vanity of the authors seeing their name in print.
Actually not at all a questionable desire, so we shouldn’t butcher up those 
names too much.)
