Murray,

Yes, starting from J2SE 1.5 the Java programming language allows
supplementary characters in identifiers if they meet the specifications
of the new methods java.lang.Character.isJavaIdentifierStart(int) and
java.lang.Character.isJavaIdentifierPart(int).

Sorry for the late reply - until the rules of the Java Community
Process it had to wait until the Public Review Draft is published.

Best regards,
Norbert
