A very informative link for me.  Thanks a lot.  So, my previous post
was probably wrong for Panther.  Sorry about that.

I'm not sure about SubEthaEdit, but maybe they are Cocoa apps.

That means the change to ATS does not help.

Though it is possible to add some ad-hoc workaround, I'm rather
negative about that because Apple might revert the behaviour of the
Font Manager/ATS in subsequent updates of Tiger, and text drawing (and
font enumeration, I think) in Carbon Emacs will be changed to use
ATSUI in version 23.
