Comment #6 on issue 1524 by pekka.klarck: Support for creating characters using `\xhh`, `\uhhhh` and `\Uhhhhhhhh` escapes in test data
http://code.google.com/p/robotframework/issues/detail?id=1524

We have made a decision not to support \N{name} escapes at this point.

The main reason is that it would require using `unicodedata` module that is _very_ slow to import with Jython. We obviously could import it only if needed, but even then we needed to document that using \N{name} for the first time with Jython would be slow. All this small extra tasks make implementing this not worth the effort.

We can consider adding this feature later, though. Patches are also accepted.
