FWIW, I've noticed a similar problem with FontForge.  It has trouble
applying OpenType features to some code points if the language it thinks
uses those code points is not mentioned specifically in the tables, never
mind that there is a default entry saying the feature should apply.  I
noticed this with Korean, but it seems to be a general issue.
