Who would benefit from changing this? Let's not change things just because we can, or because Perl 6 does it.

I don't know. I know the disadvantages of making this change, and I ask
what is the benefit. If there is a benefit, and it is important for
Python, I could implement this feature in re and regex.

You could see what some more languages, e.g. C#, do. If there isn't a consensus of some kind, it's best to leave it.

I haven't found this in the documentation, but according to the sources it uses only 5 ASCII whitespaces (exluding \v).

Java uses 6 ASCII whitespaces.
