In token names, non-ASCII will encounter two problems at least - first the same
encoding problem as for literal strings; and secondly definition of tokens,
which is a fairly restrictive listing of which characters are allowed.

Identifier-wise the rules used in java might be something to aim for:

(and yes bugzilla has problems - the string I typed in the original report
appears (for me) as "?????" not the elementary japanese.
