Font scaling via sa in LMTX

Font scaling via sa in LMTX

Hello list,

It seems that font scaling to a letter is not working consistently in LMTX.

This example:

    \definefont[TitleA][Sans sa a]
    \definefont[TitleAB][Sansbold sa a]
    \starttext
    {\ssa This is ssa \TitleA and this is TitleA}\par
    {\ssbf This is ssbf \TitleAB and this is TitleAB}\par
    \contextbanner
    \stoptext

Produces different relevant output with each engine.

I suppose one could use numeric values instead of defined font size 
letters as a work-around, but that means lack of coordination with 
custom sizes in \definebodyfontenvironment.

fixed in the next upload (which is a bit experimental in the sense that 
some low level consistency renaming happened which always has the danger 
of disabling some feature)

This is still a problem using yesterday's upload.

I'll check it but you anyway need SansBold (B)
