Hello,
I'm wondering why before defining a typeface I must define a synonym for it. For example, my minimal working definition for Vladimir Script fontface is
\starttypescript [serif] [vladimirscript]
\definefontsynonym [Serif][name:vladimir][features=default]
\stoptypescript
\starttypescript [vladimirscript]
\definetypeface [vladimirscript] [rm] [serif] [vladimirscript] [default]
\stoptypescript
Being XeTeX-adherent, it is a pain for me write that all for every font I use. Why I cannot specify it as simply as
\starttypescript [vladimirscript]
\definetypeface [vladimirscript] [rm] [serif] [name:vladimir] [default]
\stoptypescript
or better just
\definetypeface [vladimirscript] [rm] [serif] [name:vladimir] [default]
without any synonyms?
