According to git blame, the html5 dict in https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/master/Lib/html/entities.py has changed in 7 years.  On the other hand, the standard on which it is based, https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/named-characters.html, was last revised yesterday, and I presume several other times since.  On the third hand, I just ran the update script and there was no change to entities.py, so maybe is has been run with every release.

Should a comment be added to the file listing the unicode source and the update script?
