> You might want to run the password through Unicode-normalizing functions first (NFD or NFKD) but otherwise no.

If you do this, you should really save the version of the normalizing table you used, since they change over time.

Damn, I didn't even think about that. On the other hand I feel like if your password includes the kind of characters for which normalization rules are changing, you'll just have to reset it if it breaks. Tracking the version of the table is more than I'm willing to do.
