The Dominican chant fonts replace the augmented liquescent glyphs with
"tail" stems rather than Solesmes-like "drips".  This includes the virga
glyphs, which you mention and the final note in longer liquescent forms.

The other glyph replaced is the epiphonus (with a longer "tail").

Other than the liquescents which are replaced by the new glyphs, the
Dominican chant fonts support all features of gabc.  Since they are
produced by the same scripts against the same base fonts, this should
continue to be the case for the foreseeable future.

I think you are the first Dominican to chime on this after
implementation, so please let us know how this works out for you.
