Source: Beta Review Status
Given that the version's Beta review ends in early July, where the version's character data and other UCD files are released then, would it not be useful to make it available at least on the nightly toolchain?
I don't think a nightly build should behave any differently from a stable build, when compiling an application that doesn't use any unstable features.

But Rust is going to update Unicode at some point, no? Won't there be a nightly/stable split whenever that happens?
What's the typical cadence for the toolchain to fetch the latest UCD files, auto-regenerate relevant Unicode files, and integrate them into stdlib?
As for the nightly-stable build split, fair point. Is there a crate that handles Unicode properties beyond stdlib?
The icu crate contains basically everything unicode-related. icu - Rust
There are also many other unicode-related crates that are more specialized for each purpose.
