Hi Folks,
I have learned that:
In some versions prior to Unicode 5.2, conformance clause C7
allowed the deletion of noncharacter code points [1]
Are there still in existence applications which delete noncharacter code points
from strings?
Are there any pre-Unicode 5.2 applications still in existence?
The paper at [1] describes the security risk with deleting noncharacter code
points. Is this risk still a concern, or can one assume that there are no more
applications which delete noncharacter code points?
