Lowercase "q" has a very short leg #101

Currently it looks very similar to "a", especially in italics:

IntelliJ IDEA 201.3803.71 Font size: 14

Agreed. For the sake of completeness, I'll add that the 'b', 'd', and 'p' also have ascenders/descenders that are too short, although they don't have the same similarity to the 'a' of course.
