I've not had a chance to read through the spec just yet, but really,
impose pure ASCII.
On the rare times that these key names are visible to humans, the
last things you want to worry about are Unicode normalization and
language tagging. ASCII doesn't have these concerns, and while it
limits the names that can be given to keys, I don't think it's much
less of a problem.
