It is about smart font technology called Graphite. Everyone who is acquainted with different smart font technolgies understand that by its concept Graphite is the best one, and the one that have potential to be universal, extensible smart font technology unlike OpenType. OpenType is not of course bad technology but graphite is far better one, but not so promoted. Unlike OpenType, "features" in Graphite are not functional improvements, they are just options. I mean that if graphite is supported it is fullfunctional, i.e. it provides all Opentype features and more (like reodering), except what gives whatever options to a user, options that user can change. And then it is nessery just to make interface to give a user possibility to work with optionality. In opentype supporting any feature means giving some new functional improvement. In graphite supporting features means supporting options or possibility just to make some choice as to font rendering and we have already full functionality except optionality when graphite engine is supported. For peoples with small languages with sophisticated script behavior Graphite is really indispensable, and Opentype has nothing to give sth as a good equivalent in those case. I call for voting for issue 69129.
