Re: Question: Fullwidth double-quote and fullwidth backslash

My (limited) understanding is that quotes and backslashes are not
printed on business cards, and not entered by the user. It therefore
seems completely unnecessary to consider full-width variants.
While the average user might not get the '@' right, we should
be able to rely on programmers getting the quotes and backslashes
right.
