I wouldn't go that far :) But am I am somehow biased to RDF/SPARQL. I think 
there is some history around the fact that IRIs hadn't been defined when the 
RDF abstract syntax, the rdf/xml, and turtle (I think) specs where written. 
SPARQL is newer, and as a result it could make use of the IRI RFC. I have 
mentioned this to RDF and the SPARQL communities, and I think it has been 
raised as an issue, when it comes to future of the rdf family of specs. 

Thanks for raising this though, I completely missed this, and I guess it is due 
to the fact that I have yet had to think of internationalisation with writing 
RDF.

But it shouldn't be that hard to code up :) I guess it wouldn't be that hard to 
code up a converter if that is what you wanted to do. 

All the best with this, thanks for flagging it as an issue. 

/me goes back to lurking mode now :) I don't have anything to do with dbpedia, 
but I do love the work. And I do use it often.
