WK already treats any UC code point >= 128 as identifier start (vid.
CSSParser.cpp):

template <typename CharacterType>
static inline bool isIdentifierStartAfterDash(CharacterType*
currentCharacter)
{
    return isASCIIAlpha(currentCharacter[0]) || currentCharacter[0] == '_'
|| currentCharacter[0] >= 128
        || (currentCharacter[0] == '\\' &&
isCSSEscape(currentCharacter[1]));
}
