Adding automatic IDNA decoding is like opening Pandora's box.

uts46 is not necessarily the correct solution. The correct handling of internationalized domain names depends on multiple factors: TLD, remote application and more. You actually have to know if the remote peer uses 2003 or 2008. For any user facing application you cannot simply expose all of IDNA to the user (homoglypic confusion attacks).
