Storing and validating URI's should be pretty straightforward with the RFC's, the trouble comes when you have to decide how do you the URI to *appear* to the user/developer. Obviously looking at a bunch of %XY-s or xn--es is not a pretty sight, and in case the language uses a non- latin alphabet, it becomes completely unreadable. The real question is therefore that of presentation and ease of use, and the RFC can't help much there as that's not it's subject.
