It would not work in general. Depending on a font used you may or may not spot the difference between "paypal" and its equivalent written with only Cyrillic letters and digit 1, "ÑаÑÑа1".
P.S. To view the Cyrillic letter properly in the above please set the encoding for the page to UTF-8. LWN unfortunately still uses Latin-1 which is quite ironic for the pages that talk about Unicode.
