Very nicely written. That's exactly what I wanted to learn.  And tho I 
knew it
previously, I had semi forgotten the difference between unicode and utf-8,
which lead to the fuzzy question. To ask it again more accurately, where are
extended unicode characters permitted? Or perhaps that's better reversed,
where are they *not* permitted? Can a variable have a name beyond ASCII?
I see that zsh is transparent to utf-8 everywhere, but that does not presume
that one has use of the entire unicode charset in all situations.
