Well, I've decided to start what is probably a quixotic quest for a better set of private use characters. Such a proposal will need to be complete, but it had best be as simple as possible. That leads me to my first question. Where is the Arabic Shaping Class property normally taken care of? Is this something that is normally handled inside a font, and as such, something that can be left with a generic default, or is this something which would require explicitly setting aside ranges for each shaping class. (With 54 existing shaping classes, I sincerely hope that not having to set ranges for each class will prove feasible.)
