Well, I think somebody would need to come up with a patch, too.
The current Freetype code is such that the decision whether to autohint is
taken very early, much before the glyph is even loaded at all. So there are
also technical obstacles to implementing per-glyph fallback.
Unlike upstream, I do think that the fallback should be per glyph, not per
font, but I don't know how to implement this.
