I'm wondering: should harfbuzz try compatibility composition/decomposition
(NFKC/NFKD) if a font doesn't support a character?
It's easy to do so, but I'm sure how desirable that is.
1) In pango we have faced problem of backspace due to decomposition.
i.e. U+0958 was getting decomposed into U+0915 and U+093C, so for
entered character was required 2 backspaces to delete.
2) CCMP feature of OT fonts also provide this options to font developer.
(i have used this lot in Arabic fonts since U+0600 charts contains )
