FWIW, Glyphs app supports multiple exit/entry pairs (e.g. exit_1/entry_1 etc.) and we want to eventually support this, so it should be kept in mind when designing API now so we do}t have to do breaking changes later or awkward workarounds.

how do these works?

I don’t know yet (that is the eventually bit). It is on my radar, but I don’t currently have a font that need this (I had one, but I painstakingly forced it to use a single exit/entry pair when I ported it from FontForge to Glyphs, before Glyphs app had this).
