This is the conclusion that I propose but I have not added to the text yet:

 

"We can conclude that underlining can create confusion and make otherwise distinct glyphs indistinguishable, which could be an issue in a domain name context. However, our conclusion is also that creating variants of such cases will not resolve the issue of spoofing since in most cases, the link text is in the hand of the creator, and can be connected to any URL and domain name. Latin GP has not designated any variants due to underlining."

Dear GP members,

 

Here is the version of the document produced by Mats, with all changes accepted. There are some comments that should be clarified and resolved. It is easier to follow what shoul be done, at least for me, when all changes are accepted.
