Three problems with ebgaramond.
* With the new otf loading facility, kerning is not done.
* With the new otf loading facility, the regular 8pt face is not
found. If one is changing font size via \tfxx, the font size is not
changed. If one is changing font size via \switchbodyfont[8pt],
Latin Modern 8pt is substituted.
* With the oldotf module loaded kerning is as expected for the 12pt
regular face, the 8pt regular face, and the 8pt italic face. The
12pt italic face, however, is not kerned.

\def\Test{Vowel Tavern Tomato {\it Vowel Tavern Tomato}\par}

\switchtobodyfont[8pt]

\stoptext
This was tested on W10/64 using ConTeXt ver: 2015.10.09 21:28 MKIV
beta fmt: 2015.11.1 int: english/english, with EBGaramond files
version 0.016 (April 2014) installed in C:\Windows\Fonts. Same results
with luajittex (This is LuajitTeX, Version beta-0.80.0 (TeX Live
2015/W32TeX) (rev 5238)) and luatex (This is LuaTeX, Version beta-0.81.1
(TeX Live 2015/W32TeX) (rev 5442)).
Is this a problem with my font installation, or is it a general problem?
