Yes please start working on it. The only thing I'm
a little concerned about is leaving it as open as
possible. By open I mean making it so that it's easy
to support pangoft & pangowin32 even if we start off
only with pangoft. I'm also leaning towards making
it open at a different level to use some
XAP_ScriptEngine which starts just as a wrapper for
Pango but leaves open the possibility to include
Uniscribe too especially since it looks like we lose
some currently working scripts with Pango on Win32 and
I want to be able to play with Uniscribe anyway - it
could be very useful for comparisons.
