Well, from my reading of the F&O WD, it appears that everything will be Unicode-normalized. So if you concatenate two strings together, then you get a normalized concatenation, for example. There's also an explicit function for Unicode-normalizing a string in various ways. I'm not sure which type of normalization will be applied by default (W3C, presumably), nor whether normalization occurs before strings are used by functions as well as after (you'll have to excuse my innaccurate terminology, but I'm thinking about if you have an unnormalized string with a pair of characters that would be normalized into a single character, then are the indexes used the ones in the unnormalized string or the ones in the normalized string?)
