Bengali language, for which I wish to have the numerals are already supported by Libre Office (https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/tree/i18npool/source/localedata/data/bn_IN.xml), but I like to have the same available in the Footnote/Endnote/Page Number/Bullet number as well. ১,২,৩ ... ক,খ,গ ... Please find the Unicode specification for the language- https://unicode.org/charts/PDF/U0980.pdf I can find Hindi numbers in the same options: १, २, ३ ... क, ख, ग ...

If the Bengali numbers are already supported as an LO NatNumX series for the corresponding locale (I didn't check and don't even know exactly how to check), the code change needed for this seems minimal, see bug 114622 for a similar effort.
@Mike, similar to bug 114622, do you think we could turn this into an easyhack ?
(In reply to Xisco Faulí from comment #3) Maybe - but note that I didn't review the fix there, only helped in general stuff like writing license statement, filing the patch to gerrit, not modifying unrelated strings. Eike might be the person to ask :-)
