If "www.josé.com" resolves to different domains depending on the 
viewer's locale, the phishers and scammers will have a grand time 
registering domains that look like the their victims' domains somewhere 
in the world and then swindling the users in that part of the world.
If "www.josé.com" isn't usable, because it always has to look like e.g. 
"www.josé(es).com" or "www.josé(pt_BR).com", I predict that few 
businesses will bother with the whole thing. (Well. I suppose some 
Turkmen might like having "www.josé(tm).com".)
