Note that extended identifiers are still only supported in the form using 
UCNs, not directly using the extended characters (other than $).  I don't 
think it would be hard to support extended characters in identifiers if 
desired (and it would certainly be friendlier for users wishing to use 
such characters in identifiers to be able to write them directly), but I 
don't plan to work on that for GCC 5 (and there are design questions to 
consider regarding e.g. how you handle random characters that aren't valid 
in identifiers).
