The defining property of normalization is producing binary identitical strings for equivalent strings, IOW, normalization allows you to tell what strings are equivalent and what are not just by binary comparision. HFS+ decomposition lacks that property, because strings are not fully decomposed thus being comparision of equivalent strings may give false result. You know, many people still use FAT, but somehow I don't think that FAT is good despite of it being extendable for more than a decade... Apparently, HFS+ was not worst part of the Copland project, but I see no evidence to think that it was developed by the best engineers. I don't think that anyone asked them to implement so much new features. AFAIK, it was very difficult (nearly impossible) to get anyone to work on stabilizing existing software and fixing existing bugs in it. Exactly. IMHO, both management and developers are equally responsible for that feature-mania. Sure. Well, it is *you* who is incapable of understanding anything, even basic terms as encoding and normalization...
