Research direction
Reproduce the Unicode identifier case with the shown Rust source and the rust-analyzer diagnostics command. Start at crates/rust-analyzer/src/cli/diagnostics.rs, especially the reported failure around line 123, and trace why the valid normalized identifier produces E0425; done means the diagnostic scan no longer reports the false error.
