Chinese symbol page
Chinese symbols page on native differs from the usual one for Latin languages. Without going into every detail, noticably 、 has its own key and different symbols produce full or half width variants by default and offer the opposite on long press.

@muleluku the Chinese symbol pages were just the Latin ones with full-width characters swapped in, and the input method also converted every ASCII character to full width, so picking , or . from a long-press still typed ， or 。. Fixed for build 447 and in 2.2 on the App Store: with the native symbol order, Chinese now gets the same 123 and #+= pages as the iPhone keyboard, 、 on its own key and the other width on long-press. The default layout keeps its order but also has 、 as a key and full-width variants on long-press.
@muleluku ?
Almost perfectly the same. A few differences:
@muleluku last time I only checked what each key types, not what its long-press menu holds, so the digits, quotes and & missed their extra options. Fixed for build 460 and in 2.2.1 on the App Store: digits now offer 一 壹 １ ① ⑴ ⒈ ❶ ㊀ ㈠ in one row, the quotes have ＂, & has §, and the opposite width is marked 全 or 半. The ^_^ emoticons in the suggestion bar aren't part of this one.
Marker for full width variants is missing for［］１-９"
Even though it'sthe same in iOS, I think we can do better than iOS here.
@muleluku I only marked the cell that was the other width of the key itself, so ４, ＂ and ［ got nothing. Fixed for build 461 and in 2.2.1 on the App Store: every full-width character in a long-press menu now has 全 and its half-width twin has 半, so 4 shows ４ 全, “ shows " 半 and ＂ 全, 【 shows [ 半 and ［ 全.
