I was thinking that it should be stronger, and that bases > 36 should ONLY allow national numeric characters in the alphabet, since the "fallback" alphabet couldn't represent everything - i.e. add "base <= 36" to "isascii() && isalpha()". >There is no such call.

Only national digits we will have >in near time will be ISCII-DEV 0-9 digits. Ok. Until there are national numeric characters > 36, I think we should leave the restriction of base to <= 36 in place.
