comment #23 is what Firefox does. For users with URL's including only a few non-ASCII characters this might be OK - but I would prefer to see "www.möller.de.vu" instead of "http://www.xn--mller-jua.de.vu/" - please notice that this has only one non-ASCII character. 
But what about, e.g, Japanese websites. Assuming I was a Japanese native speaker and type in the Japanese URL I'm looking for it would be a pain for me to see the ASCII encoded URL. For cookies, JavaScript, etc. we (or I) accept white-/blacklists so why not for IDN's?
