    When trying to identify clusters in Bengali script, I'm not going to
    treat Latin superscript digits as part of that cluster unless something
    tells me just how that's supposed to behave in rendering.

    Sure, because (unless you happen to notice this bit of text buried in
    the standard), the Latin superscript digits are treated as *not* being
    part of the same script run, and so the cluster is broken, etc.
    Says who? The script property for the latin
    (regular/superscript/subscript) digits is Common.
