Yeah. Well, I think that in sympy itself we should have a strict limit
to use ascii < 127 only, and we are fine (we'll have a test for this,
just like our whitespace test).

Then in user programs, one could type stuff like:

Ondřej = 5
Gaël = 6
print Ondřej + Gaël

then there should be no problems at all.

Ondrej
