ALEF MAKSURA:
>>This is probably a bug in your software, or just it being old. Alef
Maksura was only a right-joining character until Unicode 3.0 (like Reh,
Dal, ...), and it got changed to a dual-joining character in Unicode
3.0.1.<<
No bug & no old software: Arial Unicode MS (latest version) *does*
support dual-joining ALEF MAKSURA, and this is the only correct
solution, IMO. (The latest Tahoma font, unfortunately, is still
"old-fashioned" and forgot this feature.)


ARABIC FIVE POINTED STAR (U+066D):
I understand it's not worth counting the points  :-)

Thanks for your "exhaustive" explanation, Roozbeh! 


Best regards,
Peter
