There is a great utility SVG provides for a fifth of the population of the
planet (if they care to use it). It is not magical graphics but OpenType
feature support. It resurrects Indic Complex Scripts from the hole they fell
into due to complexities of Unicode.

The following is a link to a (sample) WordPress blog written entirely in
transliterated Sinhala displayed using a downloadable smartfont that shows
the transliteration back in the Sinhala script. (Copy the text and paste it
to Notepad to understand)
Use Firefox, Safari, Lunascape or Google Arora:
http://www.ahangama.com/

The pages depend on support for @font-family to download a WOFF font and the
'text-rendering' instruction.
Sinhala is the language spoken in Sri Lanka. It is an Indic language like
Devanagari.
