Opera and IDN phishing

FYI. The release notes for Opera 8 say:

"# The release features whitelisting of top-level domains that have implemented anti-homographic character policies or otherwise limited the available set of characters to prevent URL spoofing through use of internationalized domain names (IDN).
# Registrars wishing to be added to Opera's whitelist must inform Opera Software of their policies and have these approved."

I didn't see a list of whitelisted tlds.
