Just a note to confirm what Kats says here. Graphite should be enabled
by default in Gecko on all platforms as of v24 (on desktop, it was
enabled for v22, bug 700023).
Note that in the Gecko 22 timeframe, we also removed the configure-time
option to omit Graphite from the build (bug 844133). So the code is
always present, even if it is disabled using the runtime preference; but
that pref is now enabled by default.

Great! Thanks.
I was afraid it might be stripped out to reduce the footprint of the
library, seeing as how it isn't enabled by default in Firefox (as far
as I know).

I don't know of any reason we would explicitly turn off Graphite
support in GeckoView, so yes, I think you can assume there will be
Graphite support there. Jonathan Kew is our resident font expert so
I've CC'd him as well.
(Jonathan - for context, GeckoView is something we're building for
Android to be a replacement for the Android-provided WebView. The
idea is to have a widget based on Gecko that other Android apps can
embed to render pages).

Hello,
I have an interest in supporting Graphite-enabled fonts in apps, and
GeckoView with Graphite font rendering enabled seems to be one of the
only solutions I can find.
I’m curious to know, will there be support for the Graphite font
rendering engine in GeckoView like there is in Firefox?
Thank you,
