To be very fair about, using your definition, InDesign does not yet
fully support OpenType fonts, either. There are numerous features
such as those for right-to-left alphabets or even input methods
associated with those alphabets (and others) that are not part
of InDesign (even 2.0!). And since OpenType fonts can (and some
do) have such exotica, officially you cannot say that InDesign is
"fully" supportive of same.
