Are you sure ICU will need modifications for that? For Japanese and
Chinese we already have dictionary based breakiterators, see source in

probably similar can be added to breakiterator_ctl.cxx or be built upon.

Instead of descending into private communication I'd like to invite Jens
to the [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list instead, where Karl also is
present.
