After http://drupal.org/node/185304 some people may still want that reduction of letters to the subset "ascii96" characters represented by something similar to this preg_replace pattern:

    // Preserve alphanumerics and forward slashes, everything else becomes a separator.
    $pattern = '/[^a-zA-Z0-9\/]+/ ';
    $output = preg_replace($pattern, $separator, $output);

It would need to be expanded to accept all punctuation since we now have the punctuation control.

Ok - here is the patch.

I decided against trying to handle punctuation for now.

If someone wants that they can figure out the regex (yikes).

Reducing to ASCII128 or ASCII96? The wording is different for the form element and the code comment...

+  // Reduce to the subset of ASCII128 letters and numbers

+  $form["general"]["pathauto_reduce_ascii"] = array('#type' => 'checkbox',
+    '#title' => t('Reduce strings to letters and numbers from ASCII-96'),
+    '#default_value' => variable_get('pathauto_reduce_ascii', FALSE),
+    '#description' => t("Filters the new alias to only letters and numbers found in the ASCII-96 set."),
+  );

Thanks for catching that. I took the opportunity to clean up some other comments as well.
