Comment(by hakre):

 There is a problem where the punycode representation causes a problem, I
 tagged it as related because it somehow is: #11734

 For the rest of your comment: I think that's a good way to go. We assume
 that the domain names are UTF-8 encoded. For URLs, as long as we do not
 read them URL encoded they are not punycode-encoded as well. Should
 pyncode-encoding be traded as URLencoded? URLs can be properly split
 anyway, so this can be decently applied. maybe a helper function that does
 the job (add a paramter for the from / to type).
