Indeed. A real long term "fix" is to drop ICU layout engine altogether

(promised to be there by March), once it have one we should consider
doing so (I'd try to give a hand).

        Oooh ! :-) that would be brilliant :-) if we can get that great big (13
+Mb) blob of ICU out of the codebase, and substitute harfbuzz I'd be
thrilled :-)

Next on the list is the horribly broken Kashida justification and make
it optional.

        It is wonderful to have you around fixing all of this.

        All the best,

                Michael.
