Really? What work needs to be done, except for local part? IDNA takes care

So what is there to do about "internationalized mail addresses" other than the
local part?

full-width _where_? somewhere other than local part?
if yes, then how can that be practical? if no, then the charter does not
preclude their use. (if you think otherwise, please explain.)
