    I'm in shock.
    What gave you the power to suddenly come up with encoding innovations
    such as this?
    The FAQ has continually been queried and criticised since it was put up,
    but you are seriously going to stand by it aren't you.
    Have you discussed this with anyone involved in coding Indic such as MS
    or the Gov of India?
    Did you not consider more sensible coding such as using CGJ or ZWJ
    characters?
    Just who was this dreadful decision agreed with?
