    Without really knowing anything
    about emacs 23, I'm just curious to know if something like a generic
    mechanism to restrict pattern matching for heavily used functions like
    re-search-forward to some limitted case tables, e.g., the ASCII table,
    will be provided (if applicable, that is) by emacs.

Why would we why we want such a feature?  It is not needed to deal
with this problem, or any other problem I can recall.

Of course, you can always install your own case table.
