BTW, that's what sort of worried me about the recent hacks to the CJK
autohinter:

It seemed to work OK in the case posted, because the major "skeleton"
strokes of the characters were grid-aligned, and the non-aligned (and
thus less visible) strokes seemed well-chosen.

But is that somehow guaranteed...?  It seems like the result not
aligning important strokes when minor strokes _were_ aligned would
result in _less_ readable results than simply grid-aligning everything
(as I guess happens now)...
