Subject: Re: gnus should accept UTF8 even if UTF-8 is standard
Date: Fri, 24 Oct 2008 22:01:41 -0400 [thread overview]

I think completing utf8 to utf-8 is the best solution as you and Stephen
described, so it's worth some code.
It would look strange for completion to make such a change within a
word of the user's input. It may be ok, but let's not forget the
easy alternative: accept that input without having it visibly change
in the minibuffer.
For instance, completing-read could accept a list of alternatives
that are valid if entered, but should not affect completion.
