(From update of attachment 19179)
Should this be fixed in ICU rather than in WebKit? We're using the ICU ubrk.h
header for this, using UBRK_LINE. Why doesn't it say these characters should be
breaks?

The switch statement in break_lines.cpp is *only* to work around bugs in ICU's
ubrk.h or to implement rules that don't make sense at the ICU level but are
needed for a web browser.

I'll tentatively agree that we should land this patch, but I'm not sure why ICU
doesn't already handle this properly.
