Hi,
I wonder if there is any special reason that why we don't allow other
languages in nickname, tag, and group name.
I understand those could become part of URL path.
If I allow other languages, would it cause bugs?
Right now I think you'll need to bump around tweaking a lot of
regexes; not impossible but annoying. :)
The main problem you're likely to have changing the allowed chars is
with remote subscriptions, as other StatusNet sites may reject the
usernames.
If I've got time I'm going to be fixing up support for other chars
and case-preservation soon, not sure it'll make it into 0.9 though.
This us already fixed for tags in notices. You will be able to put any
character or language you want in a notice including tags.
Groups, usernames and people tags are still restricted to a-z 0-9.
