Jonathan,
This is a really useful feature and I look forward to using it once it
is released in TLY2016.
Since how well the search and copy paste features work could also be
font dependent, I would like to test some more PDFs in unicode
devanagari created by this new feature using other fonts. I usually use
Siddhanta and Sanskrit2003 font.
Search and copy/paste behave in highly font-dependent ways for
applications that do NOT support ActualText (or for PDFs that do not
include it), but for applications that support the ActualText feature,
this should be independent of the font being used.
If you'd like to try it with the Siddhanta and Sanskrit2003 (or other)
fonts using Akira's builds, and confirm whether it works for you, that
would be great. I'd like to merge the code to the xetex master branch in
the next day or two, if no-one reports problems with it.
(To solve the "xelatex.fmt doesn't match xetex.pool" problem, rebuild
the xetex formats with fmtutil, as Zdeněk indicated. Or just delete the
old xelatex.fmt file, and I expect it should be re-created as needed on
the next run.)

I would appreciate if you or other members who have this feature
installed can provide a few more sample PDFs in devanagari for testing.
Thanks!
