Description Alexander Kurtakov CLA 2020-05-22 04:12:14 EDT
Currently it uses ICU4J BreakIterator but this has to change.
Comment 1 Sebastian Ratz CLA 2021-01-14 05:53:34 EST
I don't think this will be possible that easily.

If we want proper word boundary detection for all possible languages, I don't think there is a way around using a dedicated Unicode library such as ICU for this.
