That's good news. I got quite a list of probably broken scripts:

https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/457459/2388

(But I couldn't check yet for most of them, if it is a fontloader or
a luaotfload problem and if the newest version solves some of the
problems, deva e.g. should be already better).

good , thank you.
I am planning to play with a harfbuzz plugin to  check them (sort of tool) , 
with the ongoing stability of the lua api in luatex  it makes sense a luaffi binding
but luaffi is not stable (yet) 
(ok, due  lack of time could be that I use the filter module and the hb exe).
