-        Fonts below this point have problematic glyphs and should not be moved
-        higher in the fallback list until those glyphs have been fixed.
+    <!-- Note: complex scripts (i.e. those requiring shaping in Harfbuzz) have
+         a cumulative limit of 64k glyphs. Thus, if they are placed after the
+         large fonts such as DroidSansFallback, they are likely to render
+         incorrectly. Please use caution when putting fonts toward the end of
+         the list.
