Luckily some bits of my concerns with the documentation are quick to fix, so I turned the easy bits into a constructive PR.

Nice!

I would have loved to contribute Unicode support to re (the regex library). I find this to be one of the significant missing pieces w.r.t. Unicode (because you can’t just implement it yourself). Unfortunately I expect it to be a (fun but) somewhat complex task, and my spare time is allotted to other things.

Looks like there is an issue but no recent/active work. It does seem like an important one.
