Would accent marks look more beautiful if they were placed on the same level?

[davelab6]

A user reports that in a string like

अ॒ग्निमी॑ळे पु॒रोहि॑तं य॒ज्ञस्य॑ दे॒वमृ॒त्विज॑म् ।

they expect the vedic marks to be aligned.

They also said that,

most Sanskrit (or even hindI/prakrit use) is covered just by adding the svarita (aka udAtta) and anudAtta accents, together with the jihvAmUlIya and upadmAnIya (ᳵ and ᳶ in devanAgarI). In other words, such a character set is sufficient to convey nearly all phonetic nuances.

So, I only suggest enabling this "minimum support" by adding two more glyphs, ᳵ and ᳶ. Especially because their use / need is not restricted to the veda-s, with everyday words (writing antaHkaraNa as अन्तःकरण is unsatisfactory though many people make do with it - it is correctly written अन्तᳵकरण । Same with तेजःपुञ्च → तेजᳶपुञ्ज ) . In fact, it is for this reason, many brahmI scripts (from kannDa to tibeTan) have glyphs for jihvAmUlIya and upadmAnIya. So, it is a fairly serious shortcoming that a Devanagari font does not have this.

Thoughts? :)

We do have pending issue against Lohit also for adding Vedic Extensions from long time https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=798871

Mukta has all the glyphs from the Vedic Extensions Block.

Google Fonts API strips the Vedic Extensions Block.
