Imagine the internet spreads across US borders...

Me too. In fact, I go a step further and request that URLs/URI's are
highlighted in full by default, regardless of whether they contain
high ASCII characters. Reason: While they are not allowed in domain
names yet, the URL previosuly mentioned -
http://www.google.com/search?q=au�ergew�hnlich - should be clickable.
I see no reason why it would be desireable to anyone to stop the
highlighting before the �. When I c&p it into CrazyBrower (IE6), I can
open the page just fine.
