[Python-Dev] Unicode identifiers

[Egon Smiwa]

Hi all,
I wanted to implement quantity objects in a software,
which can be used with user-friendly expressions like:
money = 3 * €, where Euro is a special quantity object
But now I realized, Python does not allow currency
characters in names, although they can be very useful.
Is there a really convincing argument against the inclusion?

Thank you!
