<![CDATA[Can Opera be made to show punycode?]]>There is an exploit that can spoof trusted sites to make the domains look like the real ones when they are not. Showing punycode shows them up as not real. Opera is susceptible to that exploit. Is there any way to force Opera to show punycode?

Why could they not add something more to show punycode?

How many people are going to think to click on the lock (or the world globe or turbo icon) to check for a fake site?

Would be nice to have something more obvious ...
