This escape is experimental, subject to change, because there is some concern
about possible confusion with the previous meaning of C<\N{...}>
+=head2 \N{...} now compiles better, always forces UTF-8 internal representation.

+There were several problems that have been fixed with recognizing C<\N{...}>
+constructs. As part of this, any scalar or regex that has either a
+C<\N{I<name>}> or C<\N{U+I<wide hex char>}> in its definition will be stored in
+UTF-8 format. (This was true previously for all occurences of C<\N{I<name>}>
+that did not use a custom translator, but now it's always true.)
