No-one likes punycode.

Do you have a better suggestion?  Would raw utf8 work here?  How much 
would it break?  If there were broader support in the ripedb codebase 
for utf8, would it be possible to work towards a day in the future when 
the ripedb could formally support utf8 across multiple different field 
types, not just email addresses?
