[Máté Tokodi]

Currently String.prototype.normalize is not implemented because it would require the use of libICU or a similar library for proper unicode and locale support, which would increase the size of the jerryscript binary substantially, and as such it will not be done.

[Zoltan Herczeg]

Adding an icu would increase the library size too much.
