Re: What does "kanji" mean?

Martin,

Thanks for your reply.

Your point is that script tokens are merely used as hints for 
input methods to choose initial setting or something and thus a precise
definition of kanji is unnecessary.  Makes sense.

Both.

This change makes me more comfortable. 

Let me ask one question.  When Unicode or 10646 introduces some
subrepertoire representing JIS X 0213:2004 and name that subrepertoire,
will XForms add that name as a script token?
