OK. But note that I put "implement" in quotes. The level of
implementation I am looking for is simply to ignore CGJ or delete it
from the renderer's input stream. And there does seem to be an
obligation at least to ignore "default ignorable" characters if they are
not more specifically implemented, according to the first two paragraphs
of http://www.unicode.org/review/pr-5.html. OK, the word used is
"should"; in the context of a standard, should "should" be taken as
giving an obligation or only a recommendation? "Default ignorable" is
listed as a normative property in Unicode 4.0 (prepublication) section
3.5 table 3-1, in http://www.unicode.org/book/preview/ch03.pdf, but this
refers to the unpublished section 5.20.
