I guess so (if basic == basemode). There's nothing wrong with basemode 
in such cases.

It depends (one can also to it at the tex end using macros or some lua 
parsing as normally this kind of inter character kerning is happening in 
controller situations). In context a lot happens in lua nowadays (but we 
need to keep an eye on interference). I expect to do some more in this 
area.
