Bug Description
This was originally posted as question, but it got expired with no answer. I'm not sure why to direct such a question, but I'm, genuinely, interested in knowing such limitations (and possibilities to fix it), and since questions did not work, I'm asking here.
The wikipage (https:/
FontForge (as of mid-2010) does not handle some extended OpenType features, hopefully having a libre/open font that uses these features will speed development in being able to support the them!
I'd like to know what exactly are the missing features so we can work on adding them, a blank statement like this is on no much use (and to my knowledge, FontForge has the most complete OpenType coverage, implementing parts of the spec that no other font editor or layout engine has implemented).

There is some information about FontForge's table support below and which notes "support for both OpenType and Apple is incomplete":
