Unicode and is*

Hi all

Is there a reason why isUpper and isLower include all unicode characters
of the appropriate class but isDigit is only 0..9? Are there any
Haskell unicode libraries around? And is the implementation of unicode
support for GHC being discussed/developed anywhere?

BTW, The comments in the report (primUnicodeIsUpper -- 'A'..'Z') are
also misleading.


Thanks
Ian
