Thanks so much, Hans! I should be able to add a wiki page summarizing the
tests before the end of the week.
For reference purposes, do you know which version of ConTeXt has (or will
have) this update included?

My question is, can ConTeXt with LuaTeX handle the same situation correctly? In the following minimal example, ConTeXt typesets pointed Hebrew correctly when the characters are in the typographically recommended order, but not when they are in Unicode canonical order: We (Joey and I) figured out how to best deal with this. As a result the predefined hebrew feature now will do the right thing for fonts that assume some specific ordering. So, this should work okay:
\definefontfamily[hebrew] [rm] [SBL Hebrew] [features=hebrew]
in the most recent upload.
Maybe there should be a wiki page that summarizes tests with hebrew fonts (but I leave that up to Joey).
