Section 8. says:

If two characters in the sequence are separated by '-', this is shorthand for the full list of ASCII characters between them (e.g., '[0-9]' matches any decimal digit).

It should say:

If two characters in the sequence are separated by '-', this is shorthand for the full list of ASCII characters between them (e.g., '[0-9]' matches any decimal digit). The collation sequence is UTF-8.

Notes:

UTF-8 has the collation sequence of unicode. You probably do not want
to have the system's locale involved.

Maybe a hint on greediness of regex is nessessary, too.

Changed to editorial.
