I can understand you don't have time for gerrit but would it be possible you
submit a license statement?

About this line, I retrieved the initial patches which put this line:

    tdf#106466: Use graphite2 shaper first
    
    We want to always prefer Graphite shaping when supported by the font,
    which is also what HarfBuzz does by default.

    This way we control exactly what shapers we use in what order, and as an
    extra we can now tell which shaper HarfBuzz ends up using.
