Hmm. From a conceptual point of view, FreeType is definitely at a
lower level than most of HarfBuzz. Splitting HarfBuzz into two parts
and amalgate the non-high-level part with FreeType is fine with me.

Sounds like a good long-term project. However, this is nothing that
can be done quickly. Just remember how long it took to get a (more or
less) final API of HarfBuzz...
*I* can live with the simple FreeType-HarfBuzz-FreeType compilation
cycle. The only question is whether other parties like that.
