If you visit a domain with an internationalized domain like

http://www.транспорт.com/
or
https://гном.срб/

The punycode version shows on the new tab page which makes the domain unusable.

We should at least be using the proper domain.

Honestly, we should be using titles. Top level domains are too diverse to try to standardize these for new tab.
