However, I totally agree with Kent that this funny rendering is *not* a
requirement of the Unicode standard, as Keyur Shroff seems to suggest. It is
just an example of many "several methods [that] are available to deal with"

Perhaps there is some confusion here because the use of the dotted circle is an explicit recommendation of the MS Indic OpenType spec, which is what the majority of Indian font developers are now working with. So there may be some confusion between what is expected in the MS spec and what is required by Unicode.
