comes to Usenet feed patterns. Right now, it's common to attempt to
exclude certain types of binaries with patterns like @*mp3* and @*dvd*; so
long as all newsgroup names are ASCII words, this works fairly well,
Building filters that way will also catch some innocent discussion
group, e.g. a discussion group about CD-ROM and DVD drives.
If you filter alt.binaries.*mp3, you already avoid problems with IDNA
names.
