Tom: PLEASE focus on one issue at a time. This is about formal
aliases and named sequences, NOT about upper and lower case.
If you want to have a discussion about upper and lower case,
please open a separate issue. There I would explain why I
think your reasoning is flawed (i.e. just because your interpretation
of Unicode differs from Python's implementation doesn't already
make Python's implementation incorrect - just different).
