Indeed. After some more tests:

Lancom Client Utility (same Windows XP instance):
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
behaviour is the same as the built-in supplicant: encoded on the wire in
locale, cyrillic input possible but transscribed to "?".

KNetworkManager (openSUSE Linux 11.0, 32-Bit)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

encoding of @müller.de to @m[0xC3][0xBC]ller.de (UTF-8, no punycode)
encoding of cryillic characters to 2-byte encodings starting with d0 and
d1 -> looks like cyrillic area of UTF-8, no punycode in realm

That looks like a good UTF-8 test case. KNetworkManager uses
wpa_supplicant as a backend.

Greetings,

Stefan Winter

P.S.: add $OPEN_SOURCE_SALES_PITCH_FOR_WPA_SUPPLICANT here ;-)
