I see that particular complaint is from Feb 2015.  After some poking
around I found the current version of the Zend validation code.  It
was last updated in Feb 2018 and makes a heroic attempt to apply all
of the character set rules for all of the TLDs they know about, which
is most of them.

The obvious question, of course, is why they don't just validate a domain name
by looking it up and seeing if it resolves.
