Thanks, but what do you mean by "ascii char width"?  Do you mean that
character glyphs on Noto Sans Mono CJK JP are two times wider than
ASCII characters of some other font?  If so, why is it a problem that
glyphs of one font are wider than glyphs of another?

Or maybe I misunderstand the issue?  Could you post a screenshot of
the display with mis-aligned buffer list, so we could see what you are
talking about?
