""Could Taiwan be just an appetizer on the way to re-acquiring former turf?""

No. I do not think so. Generally speaking Chinese are not aggressive to claim others' territory at all. Retaking Taiwan back into China is simply a political plot to keep China as a whole to be intact. It is more of a defensive scheme than an attacking scheme. It is just the way China government handles it was so disgusting that I bet Ms. Zhang would not approve it if she were a Taiwanese.

China do have lot of surplus Chinese that can settle down and work on the remote fields. However I would not call it a colonization. (Usually Chinese do not go to a new place and claim to be a boss instead Chinese usually are workers.)
