Is there any agreement over this feature in the first place? FWIW I am a
strong -1 on this. I don't want to start downloading packages I can't use
because people have started using characters not on my keyboard.
There have been strong debates about adding a similar feature to C99 and to
GCC, and there are strong opposition about allowing it in common coding
conventions (eg: FSF's). Do we want to start going down that route?
