XID_Start / XID_Continue might not be quite right

The ISO JTC1/SC22/WG14 (C language) think that possibly UTR#31 didn't quite hit the nail on the head in terms of defining identifier syntax. They have a couple tweaks in mind. Consider following their lead.

Bug triage. Re-nominating to change to milestone 1, well-defined.

[graydon]

accepted for backwards-compatible milestone

Non-ascii identifiers are currently feature gated, so this isn't as pressing, but we still need to figure out what to do here. Re-nominating, I don't think this needs to be backcompat.

Correct, non-ascii idents are feature-gated. Recategorizing as P-low (and not 1.0).

I would really like to see Unicode superscripts allowed, as subscripts already are. I would be willing to make a pull request to implement this.

Triage: unicode identifiers are still feature gated, no changes.
