That sounds cool. Tp-sofiasip sure needs it ;-)

NTLM uses some zlib hash? Yikes.

Do you know if the UTF-16LE conversion is mechanical or does it
involve some kind of case conversions, so, like, converting username
YrjöMöykkälä to YRJÖMÖYKKÄLÄ? If it is mechanical, utf8 to utf16
should be relative trivial (in fact, I think there are some ancient
Sofia code doing utf-8 to ucs-2 bmp).

It is hard to say yes or aye without seeing the code... Could you post
your modified code (publish it on internet, to the list or to me
personally)?
