I have tested Chinese translation of Universal Declaration of Human Rights
available at http://www.un.org/chinese/hr/issue/udhr.htm .

1.
........................\**thedefinedfont** ÈÏ
........................\glue 0.0 plus 20.0 %% line break should not occur
........................\**thedefinedfont** £¬ % U+FF0C
........................\glue 0.0 plus 20.0
........................\**thedefinedfont** ÄË

Line break is prohibited before U+FF0C (fullwidth comma)
but current beta inserts glue.  This should be corrected.
The same for U+FF1B (fullwidth semicolon).


right
 


2.
........................\**thedefinedfont** ÓÉ
........................\penalty 10000
........................\glue 0.0 plus 20.0
........................\**thedefinedfont** ¡¢ % U+3001
........................\penalty 10000 %% this should be deleted
........................\glue 0.0 minus 5.0
........................\glue 0.0 plus 20.0
........................\**thedefinedfont** Õý

Line break is allowed after U+3001 (ideographic comma),
so \penalty10000 after U+3001 should not be inserted.

umm... maybe... I am not sure...
 

The same for U+3002 (ideographic full stop).

right

I don't know much about Chinese typesetting, but IMO
it would be better if these full width CJK punctuations
is forced to half width and 0.5em glue is inserted after
those characters.

We can use the bounding box information of these punctuations.
