Mathieu Pasquet added the comment:
I understand the reasoning behind the feature, and the will to be
unicode-compliant, but I think this might still break a lot of code (though it
may never be detected).
I understand that isdecimal() is the safe way, because anything that is a
decimal (Nd) can be translated to an integer by int() ; however, what is the
recommended way to get something that isnumeric() into an int?
unicodedata.normalize('NFKD', num) or unicodedata.normalize('NFKC', num)?
Maybe str could have a method that does this, or methods performing exclusively
on ascii values?
Sorry for the noise, I did not find issue 10557 when I searched.
