I think, though I haven't checked, that: 1. IDN is designed so that each byte, on 8 bit boundaries, would look like a printable ASCII character. 2. Therefore, any DNS software would support it out of the box, without being aware of it.
So just meet IDN restrictions in your plans to your org DNS Names/CNAME, unbound local data, whatever.
