However, that still makes the GlyphSlot require Face to render, right? Not that I think that's wrong... The reason I like the current implementation in master is this: FORMAT_LAYERED itself is not enough. We would need a new flag to signal loading layers, since without that new flag, we should just load the requested glyph id. NO_RECURSE cannot be used for this, since that is already used to handle composite glyphs, which the glyph in question might be. > You know that I tried both.
