This is from Jacob Poon's report of 2007-10,
https://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106274

with my notes
-------------------------------------------------------------

Latin letters A, E, I, O, U, Y with hook above (U+1EA2-1EA3, U+1EA8-1EA9, U+1EBA-1EBB, U+1EC2-1EC3, U+1EC8-1EC9, U+1ECE-1ECF, U+1ED4-1ED5, U+1EDE-1EDF, U+1EE6-1EE7, U+1EEC-1EED, U+1EF6-1EF7) in all font variants do not have hooks aligned to the middle of the letter, resulting glyphs incorrectly wider than the rest of glyphs in the font.
* worked on these (Vietnamese) letters a lot.
Don't quite understand the remark that they
should be centered.
The hook is a tone diacritic, added after and to the
right of circumflex, etc.

Latin letters A with breve and hook above (U+1EB2-1EB3) in Bold font have breves and hooks incorrectly overlapped.
* already fixed

Latin letters with horn and other accent (U+1EDA-1EEF) in italic fonts incorrectly have the other accents aligned to horns instead of the middle of the respective letters, resulting in wider glyphs than they should be.
< already fixed
