Thanks for the instructive images. However, the height differences
are only visible if the ppem value is quite large. Given that the
auto-hinter ignores blue zones larger than ¾px (this is, if the
difference between `overshoot' height and `flat' height is larger than
¾px), I think this is a non-issue.
As soon as HarfBuzz support is possible, small caps will get a
separate set of blue zones, as will be the case for other
typographical features.
