I can't really speak for the other platforms unfortunately. They need
platform-specific love.

If there is interest in this, I can try implementing optional HarfBuzz
support next to ICU so we can experiment more with this (though I'm not
the best person to do this, but I can try).

Can't hurt to give it a go anyway. Even epic failure can point the next
person in the right way to go. Yeah lacking Indic shaping would be a
problem for right now.
