Is it actually a regulation/law yet?
Is it being enforced at all?
Is it completely DOA?
Being a non-smoker, I keep hoping that something with this actually happens. Because second-hand smoke is * awesome*.

Well business are supposed to have a smoking area but they are not forced to enforce said smoking area. There are supposed to be "secret" smoking police that if they catch you smoking where you shouldn't, then they will fine you a few rmb. So basically you can smoke where ever you want and you'll be fine unless it's just your shitty day.
Can you not bribe the secret smoking police with cigarettes??
The situation now is nowhere near what it was before. It's been a long time i've not seen anybody smoke in the bus, train, school, hospital. Even the taxi drivers seem to have quit as well... at least in GZ, but GZ seems to be more civilized than some other cities in many aspects
