I don't find this a compelling reason to allow full Unicode on identifiers, though. For one thing, somebody maintaining your code may not know how to type said identifier correctly. It can be very frustrating to have to keep copy-n-pasting identifiers just because they contain foreign letters you can't type. Not to mention sheer unreadability if the inventor's name is in Chinese, so the algorithm name is also in Chinese, and the person maintaining the code can't read Chinese. This will kill D code maintainability.
