I agree, that's a terrible idea. Sadly the pragmatic recommendation must 
be just don't do that: ie don't use characters that can be represented 
differently in NFC and NFD in node names.  And if your vocabulary *must* 
include such names, then it is incumbent on you to normalize incoming 
data (to NFC I would think) when you process it. Stop the madness!
