Are you still thinking about the single on/off switch?
I agree that saying "Japanese identifiers are OK from now on" still
shouldn't turn on Cyrillic identifiers. I think the current
alternative boils down to some variant of
python -idchars allowedchars.txt
where allowedchars.txt would look something like
0780..07B1 ; Thaana
or
10000..100FA ; Linear_B plus some blanks I was too lazy to exclude
(These lines are based on the unicode Scripts.txt, and use character
ranges instead of script names so that you can exclude certain symbols
if you want to.)
