I read the guitex article about ffi and luatex and wanted to try if
I could run tests with harfbuzz and the plug-mode.

Looking in the newest context I found in onandon-ffi.tex a reference
to the module fonts-plugins. But this module loads a lua file which
isn't in context:

\registerctxluafile{font-phb}{} % harfbuzz plugin

Is this an oversight or is the code not meant to be used? Or is
there something newer somewhere else?

which then indirectly loads some more code

it's on my machine (and occasionally used when we test idris new fonts 
and do because engines can behave different so we can compare hb, 
uniscribe and context) ... when falling back on something else lots of 
other font related features in context will not work (apart from 
performence)

(It looks as if my first answer got lost so again) Can we (David and
me) have the code for tests?
