I am german too and I also would not like to have this.
Just think about programs written by japanese or chinese
programmers using their (unicode) characters in identifiers.
Can you read such programs?
Same for the opposite case when german umlauts and such
are read by programmers from asia.
What an unnecesseriy increase of complexity.
