Thank you for your comment.

I thought almost all Japanese like (1)'s behavior but someone might not
like (2)'s behavior. So I introduced the macro "USE_TH_JP_AUTO_DETECT".
But I've tested (2)'s changes these days and found no probrem.
So I think it's better to replace "USE_TH_JP_AUTO_DETECT" to "CJK_EX"
(or remove it) now.

If my patch is adopted, can I ask this renaming to the coordinator?
Thanks in advance.
