Go 1.16 Release Notes
I do care about categorization though. Here’s an identifier parsing library of mine (https://github.com/smasher164/xid) where I can’t test that codepoints are in some category without knowing the version.
If unicode was an external library, it would be my responsibility to update this identifier parsing library.

Go 1.16 Release Notes
To do this well (for servers, which is the most common case) you need to keep the port open (and delay requests while recompilation is in progress) or clients can see transient errors. So it's probably not a language level concern, but a protocol level one (it's very solvable for HTTP for example).
I built https://github.com/superhuman/lrt which tries to solve this problem in a go-like way (no configuration required, minimal log noise, and reliability/simplicity as the primary design goals) for Superhuman.
