[Bug 1335007] Re: Can't use pinyin for Chinese in browser URL bar due to Qt.ImhUrlCharactersOnly

 

I think this is valid, non-latin characters can be used in URLs via the
internationalised domain name standard:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internationalized_domain_name (they should
get converted to a latin encoding by the browser, so we might need
browser changes for this as well, haven't checked yet what's implemented
there). Plus the browser URL bar works as a search bar, so it should be
possible for people to search for things in Chinese.
