I see what you mean. I should have said: different code pages. It seems
that full folding does not cross their border. However maybe they just
didn't yet define proper rules for Cyrillic letters. For example, the
proper full folding for Cyrillic IO (яПН) should be Cyrillic IE (яПН). Who know
what they will do later? There are Cyrillic J and j!
