Looks funny:
There are no official (PSF) plans and I expect there will be not be any for a long time if ever. My 'suspicion' was with respect to very unofficial 3rd party efforts, perhaps not even announced here in English/ascii land. My reasoning: If one is writing in ascii only, then ascii keywords and even English keywords are not so much a burden. But if one is writing comments and strings and identifiers in a different alphabet, then ascii begin to look odd and native character keywords more inviting.
