There will be several collation for Chinese, like pronunciation (pinyin) and
strokes. The most widely used collation is pinyin acturally. The collation of
iso14651 is of no use for Chinese.
So, the proposal is replacing current collation for zh_CN (iso14651) to pinyin.
As for the strokes, we'll likely propose zh_CN@strokes in the future.
