One thing that you can try is to add
contextname='angleleft'
to the corresponding entry in char-def.lua and then use
\getglyph{name:TeXGyreHeros-Regular}{\angleleft}
improvements for char-def.lua are welcome anyway.
Hans, should contextnames.txt be deleted now? So that only one list
will be kept up to date.
XeTeX offers \XeTeXglyphdindex{angleleft} (in LuaTeX you can achieve
the same with some coding), but I agree that some high-level macro to
access glyphs by name might be handy.
