The new regex library has some great improvements:

It also has users and committed maintainers, so I hope we can bring it
into 3.3. It wasn't easy to tell from skimming the change notes that
Unicode character classes are amongst the new features. Is that the
case?
According to http://effbot.org/zone/unicode-objects.htm (from 2004), the
existing re module already supports Unicode character classes, so the
regex module will as well.  But the support has been updated, according
to the change notes.
Thanks. Support for Unicode character classes was one of the improvements needed in the re module reported from the language summit - so I wonder if the changes in regex are sufficient.
