The way Tina puts it indeed sounds like a brand new namespace. A bit scary to think.
But if you think it again, if there is going to be a brand new namespace for every single languages, it's a tremendous amont of cost and effort for the registry to implement and maintain them. I presume it'd be much more economical to map the IDN TLD to existing gTLD. From this perspective, brand new namespaces aren't so realistic.
