Well, great. But Apache isn't a webbrowser vendor and has no say about
things like that.

And for what do you think are Puny-Code domains usefull?
I mean, someone using a Puny-Code Domains from the UE or SA know, the
domains generaly are only accesible for peoples reading/writing arabic.
So why does the webbrowser accept if I type the arabic domain name and
then switch to the unreadable Puny-Code stuff?
Switching to the unreadable own is a security risc, because Now one know
what the domain is but if the Webbrowser let it arabic, I can check it
all the time.
I think, a webbrowser should not change the shown domain to something no
one understand...

I believe this is entirely under the wisdom of your browser, since httpd does
nothing to influence the display of the URL bar. It wouldn't be added, because
the allowing the servers to obscuficate the URL bar would be a huge security
issue with website impersonation.
You might try the firefox browser development lists, or search their bugzilla
database for further commentary and future development plans.
