It would be a bit re-assuring to know that restricting oneself to [a-zA-Z0-9_] is not only a sensible thing but actually at least expected if not outright required. 'Letters' is open for interpretation. After all "ä", "é", ô etc. are perfectly fine letters. Sure, I can avoid defining such classnames myself. But I'm writing code which might get used by others later on and I want to make sure it's officially okay if I just flat out refuse to handle 'strange' classnames. (Better to be safe then sorry and all that.)
