Since the lexer apparently aims to accept all Unicode characters, through their UTF-8 encoding, the question arises what characters will be allowed in Red words. It is clear which ones below U+007F are NOT allowed, but it would seem that the C1 controls (U+0080 - U+009F) should also not be allowed. Above U+00A0 (itself a whitespace) there is a huge range of characters from virtually all scripts of the world, but also many signs and "dingbats". What will the policy be?
