Thanks a lot for this plug-in.

The field "username" is most important for schools in Japan. "lastnamephonetic", "firstnamephonetic", "alternatename" are also important.

For example, a student in our college has:

field content ISO 15924
username z23001 (= student id number) [a-z][0-9]+
firstname 太郎 all Unicode characters and IVS are acceptable
lastname 山田 all Unicode characters and IVS are acceptable
firstnamephonetic タロウ (for collations) Kana
lastnamephonetic ヤマダ (for collations) Kana
alternatename YAMADA Taro Latn (without diacritical mark)

Non-Japanese teachers are able to identify him by alternatename.
