I am currently working on implementing optimizations from fontdue in the
`dense` module.
As soon as I am done with it, I will send the benchmark results and will start
work on implementing support for subpixel antialiasing in the module.
I will also be testing the module to ensure that it works

Many-to-one: accent marks, e.g. umlauts
One-glyph-to-many-unicode-characters: ligatures, e.g. "ff", "fi".
I don’t see how these two cases are different. An accented glyph like
⟨ɑ̃⟩ is made up of two Unicode characters, ɑ+◌̃ (U+0251 U+0303);
similarly a ligated glyph like ⟨fi⟩ is made up of

Having too
I have combined all of the 3 svg hook diff and made a 4-hook patch, it only
increases the size of the skia hook patch from about 24k to 34k. I use a
-DUSE_ADOBE to make 4 object files from 2 source files, and change the "-s"
switch to take a number 1,2,3 for the 3 new hooks. And all 4 now

Right
