I meant he doesn't like the latin glyph provided in Chinese font.
Because he thinks it's ugly.  If he doesn't like it because it didn't
do kerning and using correct ligatures, why should we discussing
glyph substitution in backend rather freetype support (which already
support kerning and partly support ligature) ? He also mentioned
Terminal.app (which didn't use text system). How that relate to
kerning and ligature since Terminal shouldn't use any kind of font
rather mono type?
