      JSR 204 added new methods in the Character class to
      support supplementary characters in Java identifiers, but these methods
      only check a single character at a time. It would be beneficial to have
      a method that takes a complete String or CharSequence and checks
      whether it's a valid Java identifiers. Such a method would greatly
      increase the chances that tools in general will correctly handle
      supplementary characters in identifiers.
