The eastern arabic digits U+06F0 to U+06F9 and usual western digits
U+0030 to U+0039 do have separate code point ranges. Apparently
the former code points are less used - the arabic keyboard layout
returns the western codes for the 0-9 keypresses.
gtk+/pango seems to be choosing to merely _display_ the latter with the
glyphs of the former depending on surrounding language.
Based on post dug up here http://markmail.org/message/72on34u7nupadioh
they might be availing of a "higher level protocol" freedom granted
to them. Or something.
