I agree that heuristics should be adjusted for Thai. But problems may arise if they have to be adjusted individually, and without regression errors, for all 6000+ world languages.
Thai is hard because of the writing system. But most writing systems weren't
encoded pre-Unicode, so if they were typed into a computer, it was with
a Latin (or Cyrillic?) transliteration that probably used spaces and new lines,
and in fact was probably ASCII.
More cynically, those who use obscure character sets or font encodings have trouble viewing them; that is one of the reasons for Unicode. That this tool may to some extent be an example of that problem is a simple fact of life, and doesn't call for it to be thrown out.
