PEP 3131: Supporting Non-ASCII Identifiers

[Méta-MCI]

Hi!

- should non-ASCII identifiers be supported? why?
- would you use them if it was possible to do so? in what cases?

Yes.

JScript  can use letters with accents in identifiers
XML (1.1)  can use letters with accents in tags
C# can use letters with accents in variables
SQL: MySQL/MS-Sql/Oralcle/etc. can use accents in fields or request
etc.
etc.

Python MUST make up for its lost time.
