For reasons beyond me, in IDNS the Tilde (code point 007E) is prohibited, but the Tilde Operator (code point 223C) is not.

All ASCII characters that were not allowed by STD3 were continued to be not allowed. This was due to the fact that many of them were being used as special characters in other protocol elements such as URIs.
