What do you mean by character?

Do you have to perform some sort of canonicalization before counting?
Combining characters make this particularly difficult, which is why we
settled on something easy to describe and understand in JIDs.
For JIDs: This all has been already solved with stringprep which XMPP
uses (i.e. Codepoints after stringprep normalization). For the case of
roster items: Characters as how they are sent be user user that creates
the roster item (i.e. Codepoints as transmitted).
I don't see where you have a problem with it. - And if you would have
it, you must also have a problem in couting octets, as they very
depending on the type of normalization as well.
