Not easily, I think. A little while ago, I started work on Indic support (initially concentrating on the "new" Devanagari standard as used in Vista/Windows7), but AFAIK I don't think Behdad has committed any of that code to the repository yet. At that time, there were still some changes happening in the internal shaper/features APIs. I've been busy in other areas for the past few weeks, so have not been pressing to get this integrated.
