idn domain creates folder without xn--, WHY?

idn support is great, but why are these chars omitted from the homedir by default. And where can I change this behavior?

ëxamplé.com: /home/blogs/domains/xampl-fsai.com instead of /home/blogs/domains/xn--xampl-fsai.com

This was done because the xn-- prefix isn't necessary to ensure a unique admin login or home directory for the domain, which means the directory path can be shorter. At the moment there is no way to turn this behavior off, sorry..

ok, understand. I added this line to my scripts that work with the domains on the filesystem: DOMM=`echo $DOM | sed 's/^xn--//'`
