I wrote this mainly to test the PaintFuncs bindings, then wanted to put it somewhere not not loose it. Binding hb-cairo would require also building cairo which I don’t think is going to be as easy as building HarfBuzz.

Sure.

I was thinking providing support if pycairo is already available. I think that's possible without a build-time option.
