I could have been more clear and accurate there on the ideographic
features, so before somebody else corrects it....

With features intended for ideographic languages (Japanese, Chinese,
etc.) one can also get figures *and other characters* on any of
several different monospaced widths, or proportional, by means of a
distinct and parallel set of features (hwid, twid, qwid, palt, etc.).
