On a further look at this issue, I understood Python cannot use all
Unicode control characters as identifiers.  But for many international
languages, without some control characters like ZWJ & ZWNJ [1], it won't
be possible to construct all characters with proper visual
representation.  So, if Python really want to support international
characters as identifiers (for some reason), ZWJ & ZWNJ are unavoidable,
may be some other characters also.
