The font object (tfmdata) structure has changed since version 1.x, so
in case other packages haven’t been updated we put fallbacks in place
where they’d expect them. Specifically we have in mind:

  · fontspec
  · unicode-math
  · microtype (most likely fixed till TL2013)

Additionally, the font registry is expected at fonts.identifiers
(fontspec) or fonts.ids (microtype), but in the meantime it has been
migrated to fonts.hashes.identifiers.  We’ll make luaotfload satisfy
those assumptions. (Maybe it’d be more appropriate to use
font.getfont() since Hans made it a harmless wrapper [1].)

Comment from fontspec:

 “Here we patch fonts tfm table to emulate \XeTeX's \cs{fontdimen8},
  which stores the caps-height of the font. (Cf.\ \cs{fontdimen5} which
  stores the x-height.)

  Falls back to measuring the glyph if the font doesn't contain the
  necessary information.
  This needs to be extended for fonts that don't contain an `X'.”

  This one is approximately “name_to_slot” from the microtype package;
  note that it is all about Adobe Glyph names and glyph slots in the
  font. The names and values may diverge from actual Unicode.

  http://www.adobe.com/devnet/opentype/archives/glyph.html

  The “unsafe” switch triggers a fallback lookup in the raw fonts
  table. As some of the information is stored as references, this may
  have unpredictable side-effects.

  Inverse of above; not authoritative as to my knowledge the official
  inverse of the AGL is the AGLFN. Maybe this whole issue should be
  dealt with in a separate package that loads char-def.lua and thereby
  solves the problem for the next couple decades.

  In Context, characters.data is where the data from char-def.lua
  resides. The file is huge (>3.7 MB as of 2013) and not part of the
  isolated font loader. Nevertheless, we include a partial version
  generated by the mkcharacters script that contains only the
  “direction” and “mirror” fields of each character defined.
