Haven't read the proposal yet, but I don't agree at all with your conclusion Adam. We need uniform process and shouldn't discriminate against IDNs or apply "special" (read: more restrictive) criteria to them. But perhaps you can explain why you think this should be the case.

IDNs should not be considered in the same process as traditional ascii TLDs.
