This came up on m.d.s.p. today: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/mozilla.dev.security.policy/K3sk5ZMv2DE/fx6c3WWFBgAJ I haven't dug in deeply, but it sounds like we handle IDNs in CNs and SANs differently? I think we should look for a way to solve that specific problem, without biting off the whole thing -- one solution would be to simply drop support for CNs in match_hostname, as both Chrome and Firefox have already done :-)
