-- This module is dedicated to the oriental tex project and for
-- the moment is too experimental to be publicly supported.
--
-- We could cache solutions: say that we store the featureset and
-- all 'words' -> replacement ... so we create a large solution
-- database (per font)
--
-- This module can be optimized by using a dedicated dynamics handler
-- but I'll only do that when the rest of the code is stable.
--
-- Todo: bind setups to paragraph.
