I asked what normalization they do on the local part, not whether they
support it.

I'm saying that there is an impersonation problem with your proposal. If
you register <jürgen at example.org>, I could register
<xn--jrgen-kva at example.org> and get my OpenPGP key in the WKD instead of
you.

Please actually read what I am saying without resorting to cheap shots
that frankly are far off the bow. And yes, I'm mixing expressions :-).
Not sure it holds up to close scrutiny, but I thought it was nice.

If you did not understand something I said, just ask.

That's funny, it's something I observe all the time! One word: atheist.
What I also observe is my unwillingness to conduct discussions when this
is the way it is done.

I'm not arguing at all. I'm just asking you to clarify what you meant
because I didn't understand.

Cheers,
