[A-Z] is everything from “A” to “Z”. [ -Z] is everything from space to “Z”. [#0000- ] is everything from code point 0 to space (code point 32). (I guess.)

+0.5. I've often been annoyed by having to use one syntax for “top-level” blank nodes and another for “nested” blank nodes. OTOH, Turtle should change as little as possible and align with SPARQL.
