Comment:

 I too tried in 2.4, 2.5 and 2.6 and couldn't get it to work.

 My patch and tests are now attached, but as per the django-developers
 thread, I think URL validation could do with a bit more thought.

 The test case checks for the existence of עברית.idn.icann.org. I tend to
 think it would be better not to rely on a third-party domain name here.
 Perhaps someone could configure a subdomain such as
 idn-τεsτ.djangoproject.com to serve a simple 200 OK response and we could
 use that instead.
