Other examples are:
* PyObject_HasAttr
* PyObject_HasAttrString
* PyMapping_HasKey
* PyMapping_HasKeyString
They are bad examples, but can't be changed for backward compatibility. I wonder whether PyUnicode_IsIdentifier should also kept unchanged for backward compatibility.
There is also a number of *_Check functions which always succeeds.
Other example is _PyUnicode_EqualToASCIIString where the behavior is intentional.
PyUnicode_IsIdentifier() was not documented before. It makes easier to change its behavior.
