It would be quite bad to deny access to IDN to one population, yes! After
all, we're internationalizing DNS because some populations have been left
over initially and we want to fix that.

I find very interesting (and ironic) to see these suggestions about
removing characters whose glyphs may confuse some people. It is a similar
reasoning that led to the choice of the initial set of characters allowed
in DNS labels, and I am sure that in the world of then, complex scripts or
even exotic scripts would have been dismissed for fear of confusion for the
typical user. Are you really seriously suggesting to do the same mistake
again, but with different populations?!

YA
