Behdad,

A good candidate would be this newly filed rendering issue with Cham
script: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=59395

This was reported by Danh Hong, a Cambodian font forger who has created the
first Cham unicode font. A test case page is also available:
http://khnews.info/cham/test2.html

Pretty exciting to see a new real-life script being ported.
