Unless I'm missing something important, my reading of th UAX #29
(http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr29/tr29-13.html) is that almost all
scripts should _not_ have word breaks between letters and digits.  And
neither should we define a word break on script boundaries, in most
cases.

So it sounds like our default behavior is simply wrong.
