I must say that until now I have more or less ignored details of the IDN conversion implementations because from a Server/DNS perspective my understanding is that everything simply ends up in a Host header which uses xn-- encoded parts (apologies for the broad simplification). My understanding is that IDN complies with rfc3986, so we should not need any extra treatment. BUT: Does anyone on this list know IDN details well enough to confirm or correct? Under the assumption that my understanding is correct, I think we could have a VMOD for IDN conversion, but the Host header should under no circumstances get converted to unicode.
