.. i don't have actually invented this algorithm (but don't ask me where i got the idea from years ago), i've just implemented the function you see. The algorithm itself avoids some pitfalls in respect to combining numerics and significantly reduces the number of possible normalization cases: "ISO-8859-1", "ISO8859-1", "ISO_8859-1", "LATIN1" (+ think of additional mispellings) all become "iso 8859 1", "latin 1" in the end
