Unicode codepoint escapes are still Not a Thing, apparently.
Yes, it's a language feature, but an easy one to implement.
Except for the usual bikeshedding about syntax
- include the '+'?
- how many digits to consume after the escape? How much do we trust
Unicode to never ever grow beyond 5 hex digits?
|now we have some "similar" already in regex \x|{h...h} :-)
It's hard to say "never" given we are adding so many emoji in Unicode
but it will take a while to fill those unsigned space.
