Symbols, ASCII only ? No way, I'm writing my code in French, and I'm now used to calling things the right way, i.e. with accents. "modifié" means "modified", "modifie" means "modifies", that's not the same thing, I want to be able to distinguish between both. Without accents, you can't.

Furthermore, that would mean coercing symbols into strings would be impossible (or at least the 1:1 mapping would not be guaranteed anymore).
