[QScintilla] Possible QScintilla issues

Hi,

I think QScintilla has an issue handling unicode characters. When I call 
isWordCharacter(char ch) from Python with a non-ASCII letter (e.g. 'ü') I get 
an exception, that 'str' is an unexpected type. Given the signature of the 
method, that is to be expected. However, Python3 allows non-ASCII letters in 
variables, classes, etc.

If I have a method called e.g. handleÜmlauts() in my source file and later on 
type 'han' the autocompletion list will not show this method (A/C from 
document is enabled) but 'handle' instead. That is because it doesn't consider 
'Ü' a valid word character.

How can I overcome these issues?

Regards
Detlev
