Hello,
if I type "[<chinese>]" the output is "[<chinese><space>]". (Example
attached.)
I addition I observed that "<chinese>;" will have a line break like
"<chinese><new line>;" which looks quite ugly.
(The ";" and "[]" are half-width Characters, i.e. the normal Latin
characters and not those which are as wide as a Chinese character.
Question: In the transliterization of Chinese the characters
\definecharacter acaron {\buildtextaccent\textcaron a} % U+01CE
\definecharacter icaron {\buildtextaccent\textcaron
\dotlessi} % Unicode U+01D0
\definecharacter ocaron {\buildtextaccent\textcaron o} % U+01D2
\definecharacter ucaron {\buildtextaccent\textcaron u} % U+01D4
appear which are in the unicode block "Latin Extended B". Should/Could
they be added?

complient fonts)

Here it is. One has too look closely to the spacing, but the " " before
"]" is clearly visible.
I had also the problem in a mixed text (lot of Latin characters, Chinese
character + ";" that there was a line break before the ";".
