I've got a report from a Japanese Emacs user proposing to change the
behavior of self-insert-command in overwrite mode. Provided that we
have something like the following line (CJK double-width characters),
あいうえお
point is at 'あ', and we are in overwrite mode, typing "aaaa" results in:
a a a a お
but typing "\C-uaaaa" results in:
aaaaうえお
The proposal is to make the former attempt result in the same as the
latter. I too agree that it is more intuitive. Attached is the patch
for that. Shall I install it?

Oops, I forgot to attach the patch in my previuos mail. Here it is.

* cmds.c (internal_self_insert): When we insert spaces for
padding, set point before the padding spaces, not after them.
