+1. Or, in other words, besides being a “I know it when I see it” thing, this is a “let’s cross the bridge when we get to it” thing. The *policy* here should be that the RPC is tasked with working with the authors on making the RFCs useful, in the presence of names that naturally use a script not immediately fitting with "The RFC publication language is English.” (RFC 7322).
