As I already wrote there are currently no plans to change that FPC supports
only ASCII identifiers.
I don't think we can trust on that. I hoped that FPC will not use cpstrnew
too. So if somebody implements non ASCII identifiers because he needs a
second source Delphi compiler it will be merged because the addition does not
break existing code. I assume utf-8 identifiers would not be very difficult
to do in compiler.
But what will the rule be as to whether something's a valid identifier?
Will it have to start with something known to be a letter, or something
not known to be a digit or reserved character?
