I can't understand at all why this (even as German) is supported.

Programs and developments, and in particular Python, should not only be 
accessible but also understandable by everyone - meaning that I don't 
exclude folks by starting to write my code in Esperanto letters.

Otherwise the next thing one might working on is a script normalizer 
which Engli-fies foreign variable names... similar to Py2to3.

Outside for display usage it has a right place to make usage of Unicode, 
like for French with all the accents Danish, Swedish and other 
languages, but some "old"-standards should stay in place, meaning to use 
English, so it stays accessible and understandable.
