Hi,  

I'm trying to disable some OpenType features while shaping. I'm trying to shape 
"VAV VAV" and disable kerning for the first three characters.

If I don't set any features, kerning is on for the whole string: OK, this is 
what I expect
If I set "+kern[4:7]", I get what I want: the first "VAV" is not kerned, the 
second is: OK
If I set "-kern[0:3]", I get kerning disabled for the whole string: NOT what I 
expect
If I set "+kern", "-kern[0:3]", I get kerning disabled for the whole string: 
NOT what I expect
If I set "+kern[0:8]", "-kern[0:3]", I get what I want: the first "VAV" is not 
kerned, the second is: OK

So "+/-kern[x:y]" disables the kerning for the rest of the input unless I 
specify the whole range with "+kern[0:end]" first. I find it a bit 
contra-intuitive. Is this how it should work?
