Interested people probably already read this in
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=334758#c27 , but anyway I'll
mention that Persian looks different than Arabic although they share the
same code points in Unicode.  It's the same case as the Han unification
of CJK.  DejaVu has Arabic glyphs and lack of OpenType LOCL support will
prevent Persian in DejaVu for some time, except if DejaVu developers
decide to make separate DejaVu Persian font.
