[issue2636] Regexp 2.7 (modifications to current re 2.2.2)

[Matthew Barnett]

Matthew Barnett <python at mrabarnett.plus.com> added the comment:

Python 2.6 does (and probably Python 3.x, although I haven't checked):

>>> u"\N{LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A}"
u'A'

If it's good enough for Python's Unicode string literals then it's good
enough for Python's re module.  :-)
