I'm rather surprised to learn there's no W3C IRI validator...

Having fed that a somewhat random string (using opt-alpha
characters from my Mac, which are well within the realm of
possible IRI strings) like the following, just to see what would
happen, I'd hesitate to recommend it to users. The output I got
won't be useful to many, and indeed, it loses most of the chars
I started with. (Input and output posted as graphics, because
it's the best way to ensure you see the same glyphs I do.) --
Troublesome.
