OK, I guess it doesn't break anything else to add this (except your Turkish 
texts when reading in Romanian locale...). But it still goes against my 
philosophy of "don't fix problems of the past, but make sure you don't make 
more problems that you need to fix in the future".

So, is this only for latn{ROM} and latn{MOL}, or are there other dialects that 
need it as well? If you know any, the full list of languages that can be used 
in OpenType is at http://www.microsoft.com/typography/otspec/languagetags.htm 
so you can check if it's there.

Similar issue, the s/t with cedilla code point should be canonically the same 
as s/t + combining cedilla. In short, that would mean that when you write such 
a sequence you need to get a t with comma below as well for Romanian. But I'm 
not entirely sure how to do that yet... Probably a "calt" (contextual 
alternate) feature for the combining cedilla, but that's not applied by 
default in Pango unfortunately, we could misuse "ccmp" (glyph 
composition/decomposition) for it, but I'd like to see "calt" turned on once, 
and this way I can use the Romanian community to push Behdad :-)
