I forget to say : I'm not sure it's primarily indented to be used for
programming language. A lot of people use Emacs to edit HTML document, TeX
presentation, XML structured news papers, and so on, and me, I came to it
with literate programming in mind, and literate programming make heavy use
of natural language text. And what about comments in program source any
way ? While it's true Emacs is an heavily scriptable editor, this does not
implies its sole purpose is to be used for this, not this implies it is
primarily to be used with Latin language (by the way, the same trouble
comes with TeX and derivatives, which fails to properly handle non-latin
languages).
