> I want to see this bug fixed and I've written a cross-platform solution, but I don't see a nice clean way to add ICU optimizations. The WebKit architects need to either agree on a messier solution (so that the solution can be coded up) or leave ICU optimization for later.

I think the best way to make a cross-platform solution is to create an API that can be used for both an ICU solution and a non-ICU solution.  Put this definition in a common .h file, like TextBreakIterator.h.  Then put  the corresponding implementation in 2 or more platform specific .cpp files.  This new API will likely need to walk through the nodes and therefore need a list of nodes.

For the ICU version, you create the UText routines that walk through the node list and then you use your implementation for non-ICU platforms.
