Right. I can instead suggest a much less intrusive change below. Its
only disadvantage is that if some user or Lisp program overrides the
standard case tables, and actually _wants_ some lower-case characters
behave as if they weren't, looking at the Unicode tables will undo
such customizations. If this is a concern, perhaps we could compare
the case table with the standard value, and only use the Unicode
attributes when they are equal?
If the approach below is accepted, a related question is how to treat
letters whose category is Lt, i.e. "titlecase" -- do we consider such
letters upper case or don't we?
