Re: [ilreq] How are underlines positioned in Indic text?

btw @tiroj  this question was particularly about how to determine the 
position of an underline relative to the text, but your comment 
mentions two other topics related to underlines: (a) how to get the 
right thickness, and (b) how to skip parts of characters that would 
interfere with the underline. Here are some relevant CSS links:

(a)  https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/239 (and parts of 
https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/459)

(b) 
https://drafts.csswg.org/css-text-decor-3/#text-decoration-skip-property
 - there are also some issues at 
https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=skip

I'd suggest that the link at the top of the page 
https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/459 is probably best 
restricted to discussion of the distance of the underline from the 
text.
