If I understand it correctly, your main target is libthai-data, which has an arch-dependent reverse-dependency (libthai0), right? I'm OK to mark both libthai-data and libthai-doc as you suggest. I ask this question because I'm wondering whether I should do the same to my another package in the same stack (libdatrie).
