[Bart Boswinkel <bart.boswinkel@xxxxxxxxx>]

Dear all,
Included proposed language to clarify meaning on non-latin and the uniqueness 
of the label.
I'll insert this in the report.

Non-ASCII:

The term "non-ASCII" is used here to designate any script that contains
elements that are not listed in the US-ASCII character set. This
includes Latin-based alphabets containing letters additional to the
twenty-six basic letters "a" through "z" or using those letters with
combining marks.

A label in any script containing elements that, under common display
conditions, appear identically to the literal elements of the US-ASCII
character set, must contain at least one element that is visibly unique
to the declared script. Where the visual confusability occurs between
labels in two different non-ASCII scripts, the ambiguity should be
resolved in a similar manner.
