Break Rules

I think I can answer for the "title" rules.

Many years ago, the Unicode Standard titlecasing algorithm specified its
own way of finding text positions for where to apply titlecasing. That got
replaced by referring to the word segmentation spec.

I believe that ICU's BreakIterator.getTitleInstance() implements the old
rules. We have deprecated it in favor of getWordInstance().

So I would argue against propagating the "title" rules.
