Where is this option located ? Would enabling that now improve the current
display of malayalam characters ?

My usecase is editing malayalam text files with nano. Also, Konsole is
localized in our language, but the localized error messages from console is not
displayed right.

I think if Malayalam, other Indian languages & complex script is supported well
in Konsole, it would make Konsole unique among the many terminal emulators
across different platforms. Hoping Konsole have this feature :)
