That suspicion was why I was hoping it was a temporary aberration. When it is so updated, will it support these sequences? Yes, no or undecided? The Lao section of Microsoft Typography has not yet been updated. I've raised a formal issue at https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/typography-issues/issues/238 . Richard.

Hi Richard, This is because the sequences include U+0EBA which was added in Unicode 12.0. Edge has not updated for Unicode 12 at this time.

I trust this is just a temporary aberration. Also with the sequence , as in the nominative singular ສັນທິຕ຺ຖ຺ິໂກ of ສັນທິຕ຺ຖ຺ິກະ, which transliterates as sandiṭṭhika. This last example displays perfectly well on HarfBuzz renderers. Richard.

Lao Sign Pali Virama and vowels above
When a consonant bears both U+0EBA LAO SIGN PALI VIRAMA (acting as a nukta) and a vowel above, is there or is there intended to be any constraint on there relative order? While U+0EBA has canonical combining class 9, the vowels above have canonical combining class 0, so the order makes a difference. Typographically, these marks don't interfere, but renderers may consider that to be a problem. The example of nukta and vowel below has now gone up on Wiktionary at https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/ວິຍ຺ຍ຺ູ . The rendering worry arises with the other form of the instrumental plural masculine. MS Edge is currently giving me dotted circles for the sequences and . I trust this is just a temporary aberration. Richard.
