Why is normalization in getattr unacceptable?  I won't pretend to *like* it, but the difference between two canonically equal strings really is (by definition) just a representational issue.

Would it be OK to normalize in object's own implementation, so that custom classes could avoid the normalization, but it would happen by default?
