I presume your algorithm depends on the Arabic presentation forms
available as separately encoded characters in Unicode. If this is the
case, and given that lots of Arabic characters in Unicode do not have all
their presentation forms separately encoded, nor will any new presentation
forms be added to the standard, it would seem such an algorithm would be
of limited, and perhaps, misleading help.
