From my (perhaps naïve) perspective, this seems to be the chicken whence the 
egg comes.  ;)

Put another way: If we focused on solving #3 — i.e., fixing Lily so that she 
DOES play easily/well/perfectly with other fonts — wouldn't we be in a far 
better position to act on #1 and #2, if it was desirable/feasible/acceptable?
And said effort, it seems to me, would not be wasted even if we bailed on 
SMuFL, and simply made other free (possibly non-SMuFL compliant) fonts a part 
of the standard Lily distro.

Am I wrong there?

Thanks,
Kieren.
