Dear Luigi, Thomas and Hans,
I asked to the font creator (I had other issues with the font to report)
and he told me that this is actually a positive kerning in the combining
diacritical mark so they look exactly like the precombined characters
(so that Ἄ looks like of ῎Α).
I don't think it makes any sense to implement such a feature. And the
font creator may change this to the kern feature in a future release.
I hope it helps,
Pablo
