domains get "punycode" encoded, urls get "url encoded"[1], which should make unicode characters stand out. That being said, browsers do accept some non-ascii characters in urls and convert them automatially, so theoretically you could put "invalid" characters into a link and have the browser convert it only after clicking. That might be a viable strategy.
