    My personal suggestion would be:

    U+2022 BULLET
    U+25E6 WHITE BULLET

    ... in part because that would be consistent with the extension
    of the CJK practice to include other bullet-like characters
    in the function, such as U+25C9 FISHEYE.

    But that would best be checked with people, like Ken Lunde, in
    the actual font business, who might have implementation
    experience here.
