Why are wide punctuation any less punctuation than narrow punctuation?
Sounds like a Euro-centered view of the world.

Why can't all punctuation be treated the same, narrow or wide?

LI> That is, ： is word-constituent.  I'm not sure whether it's reasonable
LI> for dabbrev to use \\sw as the regexp here, but it can be controlled by
LI> setting `dabbrev-abbrev-char-regexp' to something else.
