My program tells:
u+0063 u+006F u+0B69 u+0B69 u+0063 u+0061 . fr
are we in agreement?

The Unicode form is of no real interest except that the more character sets 
the more chances the IDN displays in ACE form and the less chances it is 
already registered as a multilingual design, TM or even patent (?).

The target is only to see printed "From: iesg--coca-cola.com" when the 
registrant sends a mail.
I feel multi-sub-profiling could drastically reduce that capacity. But what 
about u+A317.com? Even then it will print in most of the cases as iesg-ibm.com.

Again, unless I have misunderstood something. This is what I ask.
