Section 5 seems to normatively introduce gss_import_name_utf8. The
specification of that function is not sufficient for implementation.
In addition, I didn't think we planned to introduce import_name_utf8
or display_name_utf8 in this spec. I thought we intended to have an
informational note explaining how those functions will deal with the
domain based names.
The behavior for ACE encodings ing existings functions does need to be
normative.


I believe the *_utf8() functions belong in this document. I see no
reason to publish a separate RFC just describing those two functions.
I've seen no objections from the WG, but if desired we can call for
consensus. I've updated the description, however, to be more exact.


Speaking as an individual: no objections from me.

The *_utf8() functions are recommended, while the ACE behaviour of the
regular functions is required.
