Guido van Rossum <gu...@python.org> added the comment:

This will not be fixed. For one thing, the letter 'i' or upper case 'I' look 
too much like digits. The way numbers are parsed either by the language parser 
(in source code) or by the built-in functions (int, float, complex) should not 
be localizable or configurable in any way; that's asking for huge 
disappointments down the road. If you want to parse complex numbers using 'i' 
instead of 'j', you have plenty of solutions available already.
