Title:
  Check that Mahara is compliant with Universal Acceptance rules

Status in Mahara:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Universal Acceptance is a foundational requirement for a truly
  multilingual Internet, one in which users around the world can
  navigate entirely in local languages. It is also the key to unlocking
  the potential of new generic top-level domains (gTLDs) to foster
  competition, consumer choice and innovation in the domain name
  industry. To achieve Universal Acceptance, Internet applications and
  systems must treat all TLDs in a consistent manner, including new
  gTLDs and internationalized TLDs. Specifically, they must accept,
  validate, store, process and display all domain names.

  Mahara does save domain names in some places eg $cfg->wwwroot or profile web address
  and Mahara does rely on email addresses so we should make sure those places are compatible.

  The guidelines: https://uasg.tech/wp-

  Testing punycode: https://www.punycoder.com/

  An example: http://xn--mori-qsa.com is a valid domain that translates to http://māori.com/ 
  Can we handle it and/or can we display the link as māori.com ?
