My question is whether PEP3131 should be supported or not. After all,
it is an integral part of Python3. I have no opinion about this,
I just want to point it out as a potential problem.
So you say it should not be supported, and I have no problem with that.
Just to be clear about it:
In Python3 you can legally write
def ÜnicödeMethod€Name(self):
or see
https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-3000/2007-June/008172.html
for a nice Russian example.
but PB cannot transfer those identifiers. Which is not what the
user would expect.
This should be clearly communicated somewhere in the docs, IMHO.
