[issue9336] string.letters should display locale based equivalent of a-Z

Actually, in Python 2.x, string.letters *does* contain the letters based on the 
locale. Just make sure to call locale.setlocale.

R. David Murray  added the comment:

This would involve too much of a behavior change to be introduced in a point 
release.  string.letters does not exist in py3k.  Closing as out of date.

[issue9336] string.letters should display locale based equivalent of a-Z

[Anthony Long]

New submission from Anthony Long :

string.letters should display the locale based equivalent of a-Z.

In enUS this would be a-z A-Z, in total a len of 52, whereas in spain it would 
be a-z (with  ñ), and A-Z (Ñ).

Each locale should change the returned letters.
