Two thoughts:

- In view of jumping to a new standard at *this* point, what I'd like
to have is a comprehensive test suite for unicodedata in a similar
sense to what happens with Decimal... It would be great to have from
the Unicode Consortium a series of test cases (in Python, or in
something we could process), to verify that we support Unicode
properly.

- We always could have a beta4 if it's necessary...

Just my two pesos cents.
