+  WordCharacters ( rer )
+  The abstract operation WordCharacters takes argument rer (a RegExp Record) and returns a CharSet. Returns a CharSet containing the characters considered "word characters" for the purposes of \b, \B, \w, and \W It performs the following steps when called:
+
+  1. Let basicWordChars be the CharSet containing every character in the ASCII word characters.
+  2. Let extraWordChars be the CharSet containing all characters c such that c is not in basicWordChars but Canonicalize(rer, c) is in basicWordChars.
+  3. Assert: extraWordChars is empty unless HasEitherUnicodeFlag(rer) is true and rer.[[IgnoreCase]] is true.
+  4. Return the union of basicWordChars and extraWordChars.
