The existing file formats are designed to be extensible enough so that when we find a case where it would be useful, we can add the information without affecting forward or backward compatibility. The basic idea would be to take incoming patterns for available fonts and run them through the pattern editing mechanism using a new target. My hope is that it won't every be necessary; I'd rather automatically extract all of the necessary information as this will be less prone to user error.
