Opt Subject: Unicode: Κʻ / ĸ (U+0138, *Kra*) should be classed as "historic" in xidmodifications.txt
See https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1256009 . We think that Unicode: Κʻ / ĸ (U+0138, *Kra*) should be added to the "historic" characters defined in http://unicode.org/Public/security/latest/xidmodifications.txt. Our research suggests this is justified: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kra_(letter) says "In 1973, a spelling reform replaced the use of kra in Greenlandic with Latin small letter q (and the associated Latin capital letter with Q)". This is an issue because it's a homograph for k, but is considered a Latin letter, and so script mixing algorithms don't disallow domain names such as http://vĸ.com. Thanks, Gerv (Mozilla)

Opt Subject: Confusables: 043C <-> 004D
I am referring to the confusables.txt located here: ftp://ftp.unicode.org/Public/security/latest/confusables.txt It looks like the Cyrillic Small Letter EM (U+043C) is *not* considered to be confusable with the Latin Capital Letter M (U+004D). There are other characters listed as confusable with Latin Capital Letter M (U+004D), including other Cyrillic code points such as Cyrillic Capital Letter EM (U+041C). I realize that this may be a case-folding design decision. But for implementers of this confusability mapping, I'm wondering what mechanism would let them detect that Cyrillic Small Letter EM (U+043C) is confusable with the Latin Capital Letter M (U+004D).
