(Poor FYROM.  There are '"'s in the country's official name, so it
can't be put into DNS even with IDNA.)

The country's official name doesn't mean squat in this. Anyhow, looking at
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Republic_of_Macedonia - I don't see any
" characters in the first paragraph.  I also dont see any problems with
them using the Cyrillic equivalent of 'Macedonia' as the domain.

After all - *we* have ".us" rather than ".the united states of america", and
I doubt anybody in *your* country really wants '.bundesrepublikdeutschland',
they'd probably prefer ".deutschland".
