Avoid "non-Latin" #495

OpenType Layout addresses complex typographical issues that especially affect people using text-processing applications in multi-lingual and non-Latin environments.

This is problematic in two respects: "non-Latin" centers Latin script and lumps every other script together as one category; and OTL is used for font files targeting the Latin script too!

Revised for the next version to the following:

OpenType Layout addresses complex typographic requirements for correct display of many different scripts as well as for fine typography in any script.

(Larger revision of this chapter may be considered later.)
