--- Comment #1 from Pravin Satpute psatpute@redhat.com --- U+0D44, U+0D62 and U+0D63 (Vedic)
U+0D70 to U+0D75 are Malayalam fraction
These are recently added to Unicode and not frequently used characters. Even Malayalam orth file in fontconfig does not list these characters.
So missing these characters does not affect much making Meera as a default fonts.
On the other hand community prefers Meera (Traditional script) fonts. So we should move with it.
But i think having Lohit Malayalam in the default installation will be good. As it provide more coverage and also support Malayalam new script, so does not make redundancy with Meera.
So we should install Lohit Malayalam as well but Meera should be default font for Malayalam.
