[issue9198] Should repr() print unicode characters outside the BMP?

[Martin v. Löwis]

Martin v. Löwis <martin at v.loewis.de> added the comment:

I think if you change it stop considering non-BMP characters as printable, somebody will complain. If you change it in any other way, somebody will complain. Somebody will always complain - so you might as well leave things the way they are. Or you change it in a way that you think most users would consider useful - but don't expect consensus.
