I'm not an expert on this. Though the guy that sits next to me is, so I've been picking his brains. At first I thought that using the term glyph was wrong and we shouldn't be using it here. For example: Á is U+0041 combined with U+0301 and is treated as a single unit (can't be broken). It could be represented as a single glyph, or as two glyphs (with the diacritic being moved into position using the gpos table). In either case, it should consume one of 'x','y','dx','dy', or 'rotate'. But I think the phrase that @AmeliaBR referenced does handle this correctly in both cases. Depending on the font, it will be either a many to one mapping, or a many to many mapping. It looks like both should provide the correct result. Testing implementations, Firefox is mostly right, Chrome/WebKit is wrong. Chrome/WebKit breaks up the 'units', while FireFox doesn't, but may be consuming the elements of the 'x','y','dx','dy', or 'rotate' arrays incorrectly.
