Will the standard repertoire exclude Cyrillic or full-with ASCII? If
so, I (Japanese)
will disable the hook because full-with ASCII characters are not
ambiguous to me.
Russian people may not want to use the repertoire, also.

I think ambiguity will occur when we meet with unfamiliar characters.
So choosing
repertoire everybody can accept will be difficult.

For Python identifiers, it is good idea to select a repertoire for my project.
But the repertoire is best used with such tool as PyChecker. repr() is not
necessary to check the repertoire.
