I cannot say if it is easy, hard or impossible to fix in Hardy. I really don't know enough technical stuff.

If it can't be done, or if it's too hard to do it, so be it.

I just want to make sure that the people who decide to fix it or not, understand just how important this issue is for everybody that does not use a Latin character alphabet. It's not just about Greece and Bulgaria, but also about China, Thailand and many other countries.

This bug makes it quite unfit for professional use (e.g. people writing documents in offices).

Furthermore, if I want my business to start using Ubuntu, I would definitely go for the LTS, so I would be able to stick with it for as long as possible. I would not use the latest release for the same reason many businesses do not use Windows Vista (I would assume it's still buggy).

As for paid support, I do not believe anyone should pay for support for a feature that is needed, by half the counties in the world.

Just a user's opinion.
