Comment (by jiehanzheng):

 [attachment:16079.3.diff] gives translators power to control every aspect
 of the way trimming works.  Translators may use the same method as stated
 in [http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/8759#comment:37 my another
 comment] to configure this.

 With this patch, translators may decide:
 * whether or not to count Latin part by characters.
 * whether or not to break Latin words apart to fit word count.
 * whether or not to count East Asia punctuation marks.
 * whether or not to count spaces.

 This should meet the needs of general English usage (options are default
 to English usage, if pomo translations are not present), Japanese usage
 mentioned in this ticket, and Chinese conventions.
