URL by appending an anchor or query string. Then this will get picked up once your feed is fetched and parsed. You probably don't even have to post a new twt for that. I reckon updating the avatar
metadata field is enough. But that's all just from vague memories.

isn't a problem I'd say, since it's a URL and Unicode can be URL-encoded.
User-Agent
header! So according to this answer it's a fragile thing, we probably need to implement MIME encoding in the clients ourselves.
\w
with \p{L}
and in Python regexes \w
just needs the re.UNICODE
flag. At least, that's the theory. Now, before actually implementing this, we should carefully think about all the implications we're creating with that. Also, I don't know whether this is enough for scripts like Japanese or the like where there are no letters but "syllables". (And now you know, that I don't a clue about Asian scripts.)

using the lovely nick äöüß
. Let's see, how Unicode and regex marry. Need to read up on that topic.

's parser and lextwt
behave. Nothing better than using PROD to do some experiments: @äöüß. Looks like at least tt
will accept it as a nick. I have to admit, I'm quite surprised. Would have bet against it.

. A mate is constantly complaining about that, when he tries to sign up somewhere and wants to use a dedictated address for it to automatically move it into a certain folder. So you better limit yourself to alphanumeric, dot, minus und undercore. :-(
