[jdev] SASL debugging

[Norman Rasmussen]

Cool, thanks for sorting out that example!

I'm a 'latin' only charset kinda guy, so the notion of stringprep is
pretty foreign to me, but I understand why it's necessary.

I'd expect that stringprep is more used to map 'е' 0x0435 to 'e'
0x0065, and 'ё' 0x0451 to 'ë' 0x00EB?
