What is the use of the "Difference" column ?
Why do we need to prioritise any glyph which has an error big or small ?
Can't we just order them with glyph-index ?

For additional information to be displayed, I'd like to add a table with
all the
differences.
 (I've sent a mail with an attachment to the webpage screenshot earlier)
