Pango seems to do that. Doesn't seem very wise, but if it suits them…

Not exactly. https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=766148 is a must-read.

LibreOffice seems to do that, yes.

> It looks to me that coretext will never work.

My tests show no bug in Font Book, TextEdit, Apple Pages and MS Word (well,
almost for Word).

Keep in mind than the same behavior (almost) is observable with LibreOffice on
Linux, so CoreText isn't the real problem.
