That is the wrong question. The right question is: Why do you want to introduce *more* possibilities to do such mistakes? Does this PEP solve an actual problem, and if so, is that problem big enough to be worth the introduction of these new risks and problems? I think it is not. I think that the problem only really applies to very isolated use-cases. So isolated that they do not justify a change to mainline Python. If someone thinks that non-ASCII identifiers are really needed, he could maintain a special Python branch that supports them. I doubt that there would be alot of demand for it. -- René -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
