+<p>In a space-constrained display, URLs should be elided carefully to avoid misleading the user when
+making a security decision:
+
+<ul class=brief>
+ <li><p>Ensure that at least the <a for=host>registrable domain</a> can be shown when the URL is
+ rendered (to avoid showing, e.g., <code>...examplecorp.com</code> when loading
+ <code>https://not-really-examplecorp.com/</code>).
+
+ <li><p>When the full <a for=url>host</a> cannot be rendered, elide domain labels starting from the
+ front. (Note that bidirectional text means that the front of the string may not appear at the
+ left.)

Done
