"real letters"? By that rationale, all other alphabets should validate
too: from greek to cyrillic and hiragana. Can you imagine the regexp
for that?. I understand your frustration, but "alphanumeric" means
just the base 26 latin letters and 10 arabic numerals, nothing else.
It doesn't mean "valid text in any language known to man". Just how
useful this validation method is remains to be seen...
