oh my god. now the detection of tricky fonts is becoming something like a discussion for anti-virus software... Do we need the bytecode level finger printing? The embedding producer can spend longer time for bytecode interpretation and size optimization, but the reader of embedded font would not want to spend similar time to detect the tricky fonts...
