Inconsistency between `Ldot` and `L periodcentered.loclCAT.case` #19

Closed eliheuer closed 10 months ago

This issue is based on a comment in the Agbalumo: Version 1.000 PR: https://github.com/google/fonts/pull/6830#issuecomment-1754572801

There is an inconsistency between Ldot and L periodcentered.loclCAT.case;

since the locl feature is making the substitution with periodcentered.loclCAT, Ldot is a bit useless here, it can be kept for backward compatibility or removed. L periodcentered.loclCAT.case L doesn't display the dot in the middle of the 2 L. A good practice would be to achieve that through with sidebearing of periodcentered.loclCAT.case, then if Ldot is meant to stay, it can be a component of L periodcentered.loclCAT.case with automatic alignment to make sure both strings are consistent.
