The patch does NOT solve the bad implementation of IDNs ...
From my understanding, all the Firefox patch does is fix config revert problem - that is Firefox would not save whether IDN support was enabled/disabled across browser sessions.
A better fix would be for Firefox to disable IDN support by default, but not sure the bug fix does that.
To reiterate again, the Firefox patch does NOT solve the bad implementation of IDNs ... only ICANN can fix that...
Or alternatively, all software that relies on domain names needs to NOT support IDNs; filtering out of all punycode "xn--" domains by networks, software, etc.
