For window.draw, people will readily understand that they are supposed to use Latin letters. More generally, they will know what script to use just from looking at the identifier.
Would it help if an identifier were required to be made up of letters from the same alphabet, e.g. all Latin or all Greek or all Cyrillic, but not a mixture. Then you'd get an immediate error if you accidentally slipped in a letter from the wrong alphabet.
