Re: [jlreq] Proposal from Eric Muller: re: expanding JLReq character class to Unicode (#242)

Re: mixed languages.

I don't think we have an effective technology for Arabic justification (yes, OpenType has the JSTF table, but I don't think it is viable). So we need to set that aside.

But other than that, all the other justification systems I know of are subsets of the Japanese case: the glue stuff I described earlier can be used to deal with space and letterspacing of Latin, which is pretty much what's used everywhere outside of Japanese/Chinese. Just rename cl-27 to "non-japanese characters" (of course, something better, but you get the idea).
