The last effect is gone in the updated NS variant.

This is fixed in the NS variant. Now three new things appeared:

 • pressing (possibly) anywhere in the table before the  
"space" (between (60, 43) and (60, 44)) in the second Thai greeting  
changes the shape of the text right of the slash: it becomes more like  
one word
 • Arabic and Bengali line can merge to one line
 • when clicking on Arabic characters (19, 14), (19, 41), (7, 35)  
create effects like merging of lines or merging of columns
 • clicking onto characters from South Asia or South East Asia  
anywhere (head or table) changes nearby characters

The X client is compiling...
