An additional remark: The interface is fully used in the ftstrtto test
program -- I've only tested with Arabic, and I'm very interested in
Indic results.

The interface of the GSUB/GPOS imlementation is, hmm, inelegant, I
think.  I would be glad if you can comment it, maybe suggesting
improvements.  Since David wants to port GSUB/GPOS support from FT1 to
FT2, this would be especially valuable.
