It looks as if you could just clear the LOCALE 
<https://docs.python.org/2/library/re.html#re.LOCALE> and UNICODE 
<https://docs.python.org/2/library/re.html#re.UNICODE> flags, to restrict 
the allowable characters. 

I don't think you raised this in the dev mailing 
list https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/django-developers/password
You raised an issue in Trac, which is different. I agree with Michal that 
this is worth looking at, and will pop it into a post in the dev list.

django/contrib/auth/models.py line 308 or so

https://docs.python.org/2/library/re.html \wWhen the LOCALE 
<https://docs.python.org/2/library/re.html#re.LOCALE> and UNICODE 
<https://docs.python.org/2/library/re.html#re.UNICODE> flags are not 
specified, matches any alphanumeric character and the underscore; this is 
equivalent to the set [a-zA-Z0-9_]. With LOCALE 
<https://docs.python.org/2/library/re.html#re.LOCALE>, it will match the 
set [0-9_] plus whatever characters are defined as alphanumeric for the 
current locale. If UNICODE 
<https://docs.python.org/2/library/re.html#re.UNICODE> is set, this will 
match the characters [0-9_] plus whatever is classified as alphanumeric in 
the Unicode character properties database.
