@Palletack What's the [purpose | no scam use case] of allowing mixed character sets in URLs?

@virbonus @Palletack

if the url contains mixed character sets, the browser will display the punycode version (punycode = non beautified, using only simple characters (ASCII), version of the url)

for example citibаnk.com is in fact displayed https://xn--citibnk-6fg.com/ in my browser

I agree that having a block at the url registration level would be better though. Maybe there are some use cases of mixed sets ?
