Ben,

Please see the following:

Traditional and Simplified Chinese Conversion, by Lee, XiaoDong, et
al,
draft-ietf-idn-tsconv-00.txt

and also

The Implementation of Chinese character in IDN, by Deng Xiang and Wang
Yan
Fang,
draft-ietf-idn-icdn-00.txt

If I may comment on your statement of benefits:

A) Using the sole, or dominant encoding used for data accessible via
http
(or ftp, or telnet, or ...) as a means of selecting which encoding to
use
for the dns label associated with the data (or endpoint from which the
data
may be accessed) is only one of many "guides for implementors" (or in
this
case, for site encoding and label selection), and

B) Equivalence classes (or duplicate A records or ... ) for labels is
more
interesting when mechanism details are offered, both for the
"equivalence"
offered, and for the reservation algorithm(s) employed.

Please do comment on the drafts by Lee and Deng.

Eric
