on a Elementary School near Heidelberg the nine-years-old pupils

Having educational purposes in mind, can variable masking be
achieved through IDE itself, rather than the compiler.
If a character outside of ANSI range is met within an identifier, IDE
would replace it with something else.
So, instead of having "Küche" the source code would look like
"K_Ache". (the next character would be replaced with _B, _C ..and so on)
It doesn't have to be done on the fly, it could be done before
starting the compilation.
There are two benefits with this approach:
* no changes are needed for the compiler. (works with any version)
* the language rules of capitalization can be followed
Living in Switzerland, where German is one of the national languages, we
oft face problems like this.
In this case, we simply substitute "ä" with "ae", "ö" with "oe" and "ü"
with "ue". So: Küche -> Kueche. And: "ß" -> "ss".
Freundliche Grüße aus der Schweiz :)
