They [.es] started registering IDN domains only two days ago, but that's about
all I know. The charset they allow is published:

'á', 'à', 'é', 'è', 'í', 'ì', 'ó', 'ò', 'ú', 'ü', 'ñ', 'Ç' and 'l·l'

but I don't know if there is danger in them or not, nor what is the
policy.

If they only started two days ago it's not surprising they aren't yet on
the mozilla-approved list then :) There was a statement of how to submit
another registry for incorporation on mozilla's list, IIRC.

The list of characters looks innocuous to me but them I'm an ignorant
Anglo-Saxon and can only spot characters that could be used to spoof the
'roman' (a.k.a. ascii :) alphabet. Perhaps there are multiple glyphs
that look like e-acute or c-cedilla in some character set or other?!
