Mkfontscale does all of that except for TTCap (which I won't
implement). The main advantage of mkfontscale is that it uses the
very same encoding database as the FreeType backend -- which ensures
utmost consistency between the two.

It is my understanding that this happens automatically if you use
FreeType 2; please correct me if I'm wrong.
