a remark:

keep in mind that we are still in the process of figuring our some 
details of open type math ... because the traditional tex engine is 
closely related to the cm/lm fonts (special meanings of kerns, italic 
corrections, depths and heights)

so far we used cambria as the benchmark and xits will be the test case; 
lm (and other math) is somewhat special as mkiv uses virtual fonts for that

also keep in mind that the tex engine should work well with both the 
traditional fonts and the new ones
