In the masked controls one can set the mask to define what entries should be accepted in the control.
As I am switching over to Unicode build of wxPython I am trying to find a way to define that certain controls should accept all valid Unicode characters (by characters I mean numbers and letters and maybe punctuation marks).
Is there a way of doing this with Python 2.5.2 and wxPython 2.8.8 or is this something which will be easier done in Python 2.6/3.0?

According to the maskededit docstring:
"""
The controls now also support (by popular demand) all "visible" characters,
by use of the * mask character, including unicode characters above
the standard ANSI keycode range.
Note: As string.punctuation doesn't typically include all unicode
symbols, you will have to use includechars to get some of these into
otherwise restricted positions in your control, such as those specified
with &.
"""
Does that take care of what you need?

Sorry I didn't notice that "*" was added.
That looks like it is exactly what I am looking for.
