=head1 Known Problems
In Perl v5.14, all non-ASCII characters are quoted in non-UTF-8-encoded
strings, but not quoted in UTF-8 strings.
-It is planned to change this behavior in v5.16, but the exact rules
-haven't been determined yet.
+
+Starting in Perl v5.16, Perl adopted a Unicode-defined strategy for
+quoting non-ASCII characters; the quoting of ASCII characters is
+unchanged.
+
+Also unchanged is the quoting of non-UTF-8 strings when outside the
+scope of a C<use feature 'unicode_strings'>, which is to quote all
+characters in the upper Latin1 range. This provides complete backwards
+compatibility for old programs which do not use Unicode. (Note that
+C<unicode_strings> is automatically enabled within the scope of a
+S<C<use v5.12>> or greater.)
+
+Otherwise, Perl quotes non-ASCII characters using an adaptation from
+Unicode (see L<http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr31/>.)
+The only code points that are quoted are those that have any of the
+Unicode properties: Pattern_Syntax, Pattern_White_Space, White_Space,
+Default_Ignorable_Code_Point, or General_Category=Control.
+
+Of these properties, the two important ones are Pattern_Syntax and
+Pattern_White_Space. They have been set up by Unicode for exactly this
+purpose of deciding which characters in a regular expression pattern
+should be quoted. No character that can be in an identifier has these
+properties.
+
+Perl promises, that if we ever add regular expression pattern
+metacharacters to the dozen already defined
+(C<\ E<verbar> ( ) [ { ^ $ * + ? .>), that we will only use ones that have the
+Pattern_Syntax property. Perl also promises, that if we ever add
+characters that are considered to be white space in regular expressions
+(currently mostly affected by C</x>), they will all have the
+Pattern_White_Space property.
+
+Unicode promises that the set of code points that have these two
+properties will never change, so something that is not quoted in v5.16
+will never need to be quoted in any future Perl release. (Not all the
+code points that match Pattern_Syntax have actually had characters
+assigned to them; so there is room to grow, but they are quoted
+whether assigned or not. Perl, of course, would never use an
+unassigned code point as an actual metacharacter.)
+
+Quoting characters that have the other 3 properties is done to enhance
+the readability of the regular expression and not because they actually
+need to be quoted for regular expression purposes (characters with the
+White_Space property are likely to be indistinguishable on the page or
+screen from those with the Pattern_White_Space property; and the other
+two properties contain non-printing characters).

=head2 The "Unicode Bug"

+The term, "Unicode bug" has been applied to an inconsistency
on ASCII platforms with the
Unicode code points in the Latin-1 Supplement block, that
is, between 128 and 255. Without a locale specified, unlike all other
characters or code points, these characters have very different semantics in
byte semantics versus character semantics, unless
-C<use feature 'unicode_strings'> is specified.

-headaches.)

-The behavior is known to have effects on these areas:
+Perl 5.12.0 added C<unicode_strings> to force character semantics on
+these code points in some circumstances, which fixed portions of the
+bug; Perl 5.14.0 fixed almost all of it; and Perl 5.16.0 fixed the
+remainder (so far as we know, anyway). The lesson here is to enable

support seamlessly. The result wasn't seamless: these characters were
orphaned.
-Starting in Perl 5.14, C<use feature 'unicode_strings'> can be used to
-cause Perl to use Unicode semantics on all string operations within the
-scope of the feature subpragma. Regular expressions compiled in its
-scope retain that behavior even when executed or compiled into larger
-regular expressions outside the scope. (The pragma does not, however,
-affect the C<quotemeta> behavior. Nor does it affect the deprecated
-user-defined case changing operations--these still require a UTF-8
-encoded string to operate.)
-
-In Perl 5.12, the subpragma affected casing changes, but not regular
-expressions. See L<perlfunc/lc> for details on how this pragma works in
-combination with various others for casing.
-
-For earlier Perls, or when a string is passed to a function outside the
-subpragma's scope, a workaround is to always call C<utf8::upgrade($string)>,
+For Perls earlier than those described above, or when a string is passed

whose ordinal is above 0x100, or which were specified using either of the
C<\N{...}> notations, will automatically have character semantics.
regular expressions still do not work with Unicode in 5.6.1.
