no need to adapt the engine ... it's probably not that hard to support that in luatex but one can wonder if it solves the issue: th emore demands one has, the solution space also becomes smaller so probably someplace else another problem surfaces ... 100 % automated typesetting with 100 % perfect results is impossible
