No one have the epxerience of using the bbox information to typeset
Chinese before --- that information was not availble to the user until
LuaTeX came into being.
So even experienced Chinese typesetting artist don't know the spacing rules.
We have to play/experiment that in LuaTeX in order to find the best
possible parameters for typesetting.
Then we can report to you what should ConTeXt do in order to type
Chinese perfectly.

Adobe set will be good enough for reference.
