For the planned mf2pt1 conversion it's quite simple:
. Don't use `draw' with anything but `penrazor'.
. Don't use `filldraw' with anything but feta_fillpen -- this expands
to a 1-pixel wide pen if run with mf and a nullpen if run with
mpost. If you want to use `filldraw', use the proper `top', `rt',
etc.
. Don't use `---'. Replace it with `--', specifying the curve
directions.
For good pixelations, the following is needed:
. Tangent points of curves should have integer coordinates (in the
specific direction).
. If you want to draw identical shapes repeatedly, use an integer
offset for shifting.
. For symmetrical glyphs (or glyphs which should be positioned
exactly between or on staff lines) read the comment in
feta-params.mf.
There are some other subtle things which I will eventually collect in
a README.

OK.
