Is this fixed in 3.9?  If not, the Versions list above should be updated.

The failure of lower() to preserve 'alpha-ness' is a serious bug, it causes significant failures in e.g. Turkish NLP, and it's _not_ just a failure of the documentation!

Please can we move this to category Unicode and get at least this aspect of the problem fixed?  Should I raise a separate issue on isalpha() etc.?
