Re: [whatwg/url] Refusing a mix of numeric-only and BIDI domains (#543)

So why say they are guarantees?

Given that IDNA2003 was implemented by user agents it does seem somewhat irresponsible that IDNA2008 didn't try to address them at all, but I guess that's water under the bridge.

I guess I need input from @achristensen07 @valenting @markusicu @macchiati as to what exactly we'd like to enforce here. Banning numeric labels in domains containing RTL labels seems bad so I assume we want to change that part of UTS46.

Enforcing The Bidi Rule for labels containing a character whose property is R seems realistic and implemented by all user agents.

We could additionally try to enforce the second "guarantee" by not allowing a numeric label after an RTL label, but not sure.
