G'day all
I am using Harfbuzz (not ng) to layout Bengali text

The Chandrabindu character (Bengali U+981) at the start of a line is positioned 
by Harfbuzz above the Unicode character dotted circle  (U+25cc)

My users tell me that the Chandrabindu character " is used at the beginning of 
a line to denote the bengali "Iswar" (Late) word.
So, it is usually used as the first character before a name of a person, who is 
dead".

and should not be positioned over the dotted circle  in printed/wysiwyg output 
(but should be for text mode)

I can accommodate their wishes for my purposes, but is this something that 
should be considered for harfbuzz-ng ?
