Describe the feature

I have had a try Zed. It is great. But only one is missing. That's Myanmar Font. Burmese/Myanmar text font appears right 90%. I adjust setting like buffer-font-family and buffer-font-feature. Not working. Is there any setting for East Asian fonts like Burmese.

Environment

Zed: v0.162.5 (Zed)
OS: Linux Wayland arch unknown
Memory: 7.6 GiB
Architecture: x86_64
GPU: Intel(R) UHD Graphics 620 (WHL GT2) || Intel open-source Mesa driver || Mesa 24.2.7-arch1.1

If applicable, add mockups / screenshots to help present your vision of the feature

Can you provide a single copy/pastable example of the string of characters so we can investigate further? I'm not familiar with Burmese/Myanmar script so any additional info/details would be extremely appreciated.

Thanks for reply. Yes. Myanmar unicode font called padauk is can be found here https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Padauk. I think you can see the font even if you don't have the font installed on your computer. And you can test here https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Padauk/tester by doing copy and paste the followings:
အလုပ်လုပ်ရန် ကာလအပိုင်းအခြားနို့တစ်စာကို ပြဌာန်းချက်များနှင့်အညီ မြင်သာသောနေရာတွင် ကပ်ထားရမည်။
Then I think you will see the 100% right script. But if you install the font called padauk from the link above, copy the above Myanmar text and paste into Zed Editor, you will see a little bit errors. Especially, ကာလအပိုင်းအခြားနို့တစ်စာကို and မြင်သာသောနေရာတွင် will appear weird apparently. What it appears in the Google Fonts Type tester is 100% right.
