develop Python to take advantage of these opportunities?

Could we then also 'update' Python, to accept the wider range of

Would such even constitute 'a good idea'?
There was a recent thread on python-ideas discussing this. It started
with arrow characters. There have been others.
Am pleased to hear that it's neither 'new' nor 'way out there'...
Am not subscribed to that list. Went looking for its archives, but
failed - there's no "ideas" on
