Taiwan didn't even recognize Mongolia's independence until 2002. Good luck getting the KMT to accept Tibet's or Uyghurstan's independence.

My personal bet is they'll go for Outer Manchuria. They still see the treaty of Aigun as an unequal treaty and as things stand the international community wouldn't even bother writing a strongly worded letter if they decided to rectify it.
