That is how I felt when you dismissed my effort to make your proposal more useful and more acceptable to some (by addressing transliteration) with the little molehill problem that Norwegians and Germans disagree about o: (rotated 90 degrees).

So I shut up.

However, to me, one impetus to expanding the Python char set is the OLPC project. For children to share programs across national boundaries, programs written in local chars will usually have to be transliterated to the one set of chars common to all versions of the laptop.
