Good effort and idea, Lin.
Just for your reference, uniscribe and opentype is not officially
shape burmese. Pango is also not officially shape burmese. You could
try http://sourceforge.net/projects/prahita but it uses PUA.
Recently Padauk release version 2 (http://scripts.sil.org/Padauk)
which include lastest milestone unicode confrontment for Myanmar
scripts and recommanded. You need Pango-Graphite patch. Read more at
http://www.unimm.org/cms/node/18
I'm a developer from http://www.unimm.org. You may somehow try at
https://launchpad.net/rosetta/
which you can find me https://launchpad.net/people/haalaaluu
There are other few people joining, too. We did some translation with
partial unicode font. Please let me know for any update.

I could not find any reference to your name on that page. What is your
full name?
Furthermore, do you have a Bugzilla account at
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/ ? If not, please create one (at the
bugzilla.gnome.org site), and let me know the account name (the e-mail
address you used for registering the account).
Thanks,
Christian
