And fractions and superscripts are not digits. Implementations often use the same character definitions for all locales using the same character set -- such as the Unicode character data file, for Unicode-based locales. I think changing this may be a tough sell for many implementers, just given the sheer number of characters (and bikeshed-painting debates about which particular character class or collation element should include which characters in which locales would not be welcome). -GAWollman
