Are you saying that, with these patches, Postgres will offer the
fastest open-source Unicode normalization? If so, that would be very
cool.
The reason I'm asking is because, if there are multiple open source
implementations, we should either have the best one, or just borrow
another one as long as it has a suitable license (perhaps translating
to C as necessary).
