            Bug ID: 379195
           Summary: Konversation can't handle IDN urls
           Product: konversation
           Version: 1.6
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: konversation-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: bugs5.kde.org at sjau.ch
  Target Milestone: ---

Well, I just read an article about IDN urls and how they are used for phishing.
One of the examples given was https://www.xn--80ak6aa92e.com/ (not apple) which
shows in some browsers as apple.com.

Anway, when I paste that url in Konversation and click on it to open it, an
error message pops up:

Malformed URL
Invalid hostname (contains invalid characters); source was "https://www..com/";
scheme = "https", host = "", path = "/"


The URL is correct but it seems Konversation can't handle IDN urls properly.
