i've asked Adobe to provide draft text for this.
Where is this needed? A bounding box is a general concept. You can compute it however suits your needs. Why does anything need to be specified in the spec regarding this?
@be5invis : Please clarify the requirement (see Behdad's comment).

's x/y min/max needs a definition of bounding box of glyphs, and unlike TrueType, CFF glyphs' bounding box is not clearly defined.
ref: https://typedrawers.com/discussion/3659/are-off-curve-points-considered-for-the-bounding-box#latest
I propose we defer this to after OT 1.8.4.
Bounding box should be defined as min/max of x/y of control points (on-curve and off-curve points), NOT the curve itself.
