I don't think it has to do something with ICS or google has implemented this. Even before ICS, I have seen this behavior.

Most Samsung Galaxy series running Froyo or Gingerbread support Hindi display. In these phones Hindi is displayed properly in stock Android browser but not in Opera Mobile.

Android ICS does not natively support rendering of Tamil, Devanagiri
and Bengali scripts. It just supports the fonts. Rendering depends on
individual apps. This is a clever move from Google to increase the
native browser usage. They've implemented font rendering in the
stock browser; firefox still shows the compound characters wrongly.
Facebook app renders correctly too.
