I'd like to take an existing math font, say Latin Modern, and replace certain glyphs by their corresponding ones from an OpenType font, say Minion Pro. (Proper math kerning won't be an issue at the moment since I'm having in mind a proof-of-principle type of thing.) How would I do that? It depends on your goal. For instance if you want to support minion math, and it's not an otf font, then you need tfm with the right metrics. Given that they are in default tex encoding, you then just need to set up a virtual font definition (you can look into px-math.lfg to see how that is done for palatino). If your fonts have lots of exceptions you might need to create additional vectors.
