Well, I don't know anything that could do the right thing for Hindi, Hebrew, Arabic, etc. In fact I don't know what the right thing is for most world languages. But from the little I know, if Pango (or some other lib) does not provide routines for breaking text to individual graphems that make sense placed vertically, this will be hard. Unless the strings to display are constant and can be broken by translators -- and then you will have the formatting embedded and thus no need to worry about iterations.
