An on-off switch seems enough to begin with. Language-dependent folding could to be a separate feature; unicode folding (the curretn implementation) would be a fine feature to start with, I think. That's the idea, indeed: the feature currently provides language-independent lax matching; language-dependent variations should follow, once we (a) figure out how to know _the_ language at any given place, and (b) acquire a database of those variations.
