 may be right, but I'd really like to get Eric Mader to 
 look at this before we change things, since this affects
 all Indic scripts.
 
 (This bug report supports the idea that there should be 
 only *one* issue per bug report.)

+I just looked at the Bengali part of chapter 9 of Unicode4.0. It cleary 
+states what to do for 1b. I don't think we need to bring it up with 
+OpenType mailing list, unless we want to know if they are planning to 
+add some new feature in OT layout table. And IMHO if uniscribe does 
+not render it properly then we need to let them know, not follow them :) 
+ 
+And your suggestion "gulong tag = (i == baseLimit) ? half_p : blwf_p" 
+does work. 
+ 
+Issue 3 is quite important for Bengali at least. Unicode 4.0 seems to be 
+using ZWJ/ZWNJ to deal with few commonly used cases. 
+ 
+btw, I just tried out Qt's OT support. It works with all these cases!
