In Tools/Options/Language Settings/Languages, I can choose the default languages
for three types of script - Western, Asian, and CTL. Then in Format/Character
dialog box, I can set one font for 'Western text', one font for (East) 'Asian
text' and one font for 'CTL' (Bidi & Indic). I can also change the languages of
the three types of script to other languages than the default. 

However, if I want to make a document that consists of two CTL languages, e.g.
Thai and Lao, the mechanism will not work comfortably. Because I can't set
different fonts for Thai and Lao. I have to set them (the font and the language)
manually when I switch the language between Thai and Lao in the text. I may have
to do so because I have to use different fonts for Thai and Lao.

In Mozilla, they implement this differently. You can set separate font for each
script instead of just Western/Asian/CTL. This will make it easier to make
documents with mix languages.
