Re: German Umlauts (äöü) in Url dont work

[Hendrik Schumacher]

German umlauts are not allowed in domains. If you use an umlaut-domain it
is encoded as an IDN-domain (see here:
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internationalizing_Domain_Names_in_Applications)
so dömäin.example becomes xn--dmin-moa0i.example. The umlaut is converted
by the browser that sends the IDN-name to nginx.
