[:...:] classes does not work with unicode, only with ASCII.

But not forbidden in zsh and csh.

If you want to use regexs with non-ascii characters, use perl. If you want to 
use them in vim, use vim with python support (vim has very bad perl 
integration).

Yes, it is. I know some more bugs, like impossibility to specify character 
range 
that is more then 255 characters wide in a [...] collection and strange 
difference in handling [\uXXXX] and \%uXXXX if XXXX is a hex representation of 
diacritics character. All these bugs were reported.

vim-dev mailing list. Note that your requests are probably already in a todo 
list.
