This would be nice. I think this is the next logical step, it would be
useful for XeTeX as well as for luatex. I have been plannig to do it
myself but I've had no time yet to learn how to do it. In the
preprocessor we have the @sanskrit, @hindi and @modernhindi modes that
switch on and off some conjuncts. XeTeX supports language features if
they are present in the font. I hope it might be possible to switch
conjuncts on anf off by means of these features.
