Glyphs required for minority orthographies in Tamil
While the Tamil script is mainly used for writing Tamil language text, it is
also attested to be used for other language text such as Sanskrit, Saurashtra,
Hindi, Marathi, Telugu and Kannada in the form of transliteration.
For these minority orthography usecases, some characters from script-neutral
blocks are required:
1) The superscript digits ¹²³⁴ would be used for representing the varga
consonants (actually ¹ is only used very rarely). The Unicode chapter on Tamil
script documents this and recommends the characters (0xb9) 0xb2 0xb3 0x2074.
2) Not only the superscript digits but their corresponding subscript digits
₁₂₃₄ (0x2081-0x2084) are also attested as a stylistic variant choice.
3) The modifier letter apostrophe 02BC ʼ is also seen.
4) Further, sometimes the candrabindu is also seen for nasality. Since there is
no Tamil candrabindu character, the generic candrabindu ◌̐ at 0310 can be
used.
5) The visarga is commonly seen but the Tamil visarga code point 0B83 is mapped
to the Tamil special letter aytam ஃ (which has three dots against the visarga's
two dots), so we will have to place the two-dot visarga in the PUA. (Not ideal
I know, but it is unlikely to encode a Tamil-specific two-dot visarga. It is
not possible to use the Devanagari visarga codepoint 0903 since rendering
engines will produce dotted circles as it is not correct to combine Devanagari
codepoints with Tamil codepoints.)
Attestations for these usages and required glyphs are attached. Please add them
with the appropriate script-neutral codepoints shown in the patch TTF so Lohit
Tamil (and Lohit Tamil Classical) is also useful for these minority
orthographies. BTW it would be good font design policy to make the modifier
apostrophe a composite glyph of the regular apostrophe and subscript digits as
composites of superscript digits.

[Bug 22621] New: RFE: Add font autoinstallation support
by bugzilla-daemon@webkit.org
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=22621
Summary: RFE: Add font autoinstallation support
Product: WebKit
Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: Enhancement
Priority: P2
Component: Text
AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned(a)lists.webkit.org
ReportedBy: nicolas.mailhot(a)laposte.net
CC: fedora-fonts-bugs-list(a)redhat.com
The Linux platform is gaining an on-demand font autoinstallation framework (BSD
and Solaris will probably follow eventually).
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/AutomaticFontInstallation
Webkit browsers should be plugged into it and use it to request the fonts the
pages they render need. This would have a huge user impact, especially for
pages that have strong i18n constrains.
Unlike proposals such as @font-face and EOT the fonts are sourced from trusted
user-controlled sources, are properly vetted legal-side, use the latest font
versions not old obsolete ones (with bug fixes), and are installed system-wide
where other apps can take advantage of them.

Summary: Add Greek Polytonic support to Liberation fonts
Product: Fedora
Version: rawhide
Platform: All

Classification: Fedora
The Liberation fonts are missing the Greek Polytonic characters (Greek Extended
Unicode group).
In practical terms, the Greek Extended Unicode group is made of the Greek
characters with a variety of accents (they are precomposed characters).
This report is to track the process of adding support.
