Not 100% accurate. GPOS kerning is implemented in Uniscribe for Arabic,
Syriac, Hebrew, Thaana and, I believe, Thai scripts. For the Indic scripts,
the similar <dist> feature is implemented to provide fine tuning of e.g.
the point at which the I matra touches down on a conjunct.
GPOS kerning is not yet implemented in Uniscribe for other scripts,
including Latin.
