The phrase "in those contexts" suggests that it should in some and shouldn't
in others. This means that the regexp engine would need to understand
Japanese, not a pretty prospect. I'll solicit advise from Tokyo.pm on how
*they*'d expect the matching to work; I have a gut feeling that they
*wouldn't* want \d to match kanji digits, although possibly wouldn't mind
a separate character class to do so.
