Subject: Label separator in internationalized XRIs


Section 3.1 of RFC 3490 "Internationalizing Domain Names in Applications
(IDNA)" says

1) Whenever dots are used as label separators, the following characters MUST
be recognized as dots: U+002E (full stop), U+3002(ideographic full stop),
U+FF0E (fullwidth full stop), U+FF61 (halfwidth ideographic full stop).

Label is defined as "an individual part of a domain name.  Labels are
usually shown separated by dots; for example, the domain name
'www.example.com' is composed of three labels: 'www', 'example', and 'com'".

This seems to conflict with the iqualified production in
draft-duerst-iri-04, defined as

iqualified = *( "." idomainlabel ) [ "." ]

It looks to me like there needs to be an ilabelseparator production that
includes the additional characters listed above.

Am I reading this wrong?

Dave
