Hmm looks like that's done already? http://www.openi18n.org/subgroups/utildev/dli18npatch2.html

$ cat Pádraig Pádraig PÁdraig

$ ./i18n-uniq -i < Pádraig Pádraig

It's not so simple. That patch duplicates large chunks of logic, bloating the resulting code and (more importantly) making it far less maintainable.

I'm holding out for a clean solution.
