Overly restrictive rules for KATAKANA MIDDLE DOTÂ #46
Description
RFC5892 A.7 states that the KATAKANA MIDDLE DOT character https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5892#appendix-A.7 requires at least one character in the {Hiragana, Katakana, Han} scripts. The validation in this library requires that ALL characters in the label (besides the dot character itself) be in those scripts.
