Yes, I can confirm that when opened in 7.0.4 RC1 the diacritic marks are
separated, with the dotted circle, instead on the glyph it's supposed to attach
to.

However, when opened in 6.4.7, it's exactly the same.

So to me, who has no experience on Sanskrit in particular or any CTL language
in general (so take my opinion for whatever it's worth), this looks like an
issue about how LO handles the input of Sanskrit characters, instead of the
original issue about font rendering.  This issue also doesn't seem to have
anything to do with font metrics.

My suggestion, therefore, is reporting the new issue as a new bug, and provide
detailed steps to reproduce (preferrably steps can be done on systems without
Sanskrit support installed).  Meanwhile this bug can be resolved as WORKSFORME
as it's fixed in 7.0.3.
