A good real-world example of this is the forthcoming HK (Hong Kong) support for Source Han Sans (Adobe) and Noto Sans CJK (Google) that will add HK versions of the fonts to the collection, both weight-specific and the Super OTCs. These additional fonts will not be appended, but rather inserted, at least for the Super OTCs. > > Come to think of it, this actually happened to the SuperOTCs in Version 1.002 when HW (half-width) fonts were added for Regular and Bold. They were inserted, not appended. That is a very useful data point. Ken, would you please make that point on the IETF justfont mailing list? If numeric fragments will be unreliable in practice, we should discuss changing to a more reliable scheme and that list is the correct place to do so.
