Sorry, I forgot about this. I meant to say any sane modern language that allows unicode should use the block specifications (for e.g. to determine the alphabets, numeric, symbols, alphanumeric unicodes, etc) for similar rules with ASCII. So that they don't have to individually support each language.

Oh, that I agree with. But then there's the mess of Unicode updates, and if you're using an old version of the compiler that was built with an old version of Unicode, it might not recognize every character you use...
