Simply listing the table above is insufficient to claim that variations sequences have been considered. A UA must classify a SVS whose base character is fullwidth colon or dot punctuation by the following rule if the current font support it:

<table>
<thead>
<tr>
  <td></td>
  <th>colon punctuation</th>
  <th>dot punctuation</th>
</tr>
</thead>
  <tbody>
    <tr>
    <th>+U+FE00</th>
    <td>closing</td>
    <td>closing</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
    <th>+U+FE01</th>
    <td>middle dot</td>
    <td>middle dot</td>
    </tr>
  </tbody>
</table>
