Bug Description
The letter 'Њ' is a ligature of 'Н' and 'Ь' and it should look like the two letters "molten" together.
In this new Ubuntu font, the small version of the letter (њ) is a little bit out of position (the right part of the letter (ь) is a little bit upper than the left part - 'н').
Proposed solution:
1. Upright Њ be changed to have flat top and bottom on bowl. Top of bowl aligned to bar.
2. Cursive Њ be changed to have flat top and rounded bottom on bowl. Top of bowl aligned to bar.
3. Н Њ consistency to be maintained (important)
4. lj Њ consistency to be maintained (medium importance)
5. Ь Њ consistency least of worries (lowest importance, because these don't appear together in the real-world)

Riste: that is a wonderful diagram; please could you expand it to show 'н' and 'ь' separately, and then 'њ' as it currently, and then how you believe it should look (the diagram above, for both lower and captials). Having everything in one place makes it much easier to have a quick visual comparison.
