I was playing with the addfeature handler mentioned here
https://mailman.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2016/083952.html and
run into a problem with ttc-fonts:

\starttext
\directlua{
    fonts.handlers.otf.addfeature {
        name = "oneb",
        {
            type = "substitution",
            data = {
                ["1"] = "period",
            },
        },
        "feature test",
    }
}
\font\test= name:LatinModernRoman:+oneb \test

1234567890

\font\test= name:cambria:+oneb \test

1234567890

\stoptext

This gives:

.234567890
p234567890

So with latin modern it works fine, while with cambria the first
letter of the substituation is used.

The used fonts are:

filename=lmroman10-bold.otf filetype=otf format=otf
foundname=D:/context-minimals/context/tex/texmf/fonts/opentype/public/lm/lmroman10-bold.otf
usedmethod=database

filename=c:/windows/fonts/cambria.ttc format=ttc
foundname=c:/windows/fonts/cambria.ttc usedmethod=direct

(I have no idea why the bold version of lm is used, but I don't care
now)

Looking at the tma I see one difference between both fonts:
glyphs in cambria have no "name". A typical entry looks like this

  [46]={
   ["boundingbox"]={ 109, 0, 311, 232 },
   ["index"]=484,
   ["unicode"]=46,
   ["width"]=420,
  },

while with latin modern it looks like this:

  [46]={
   ["boundingbox"]={ 81, 0, 237, 156 },
   ["index"]=88,
   ["name"]="period",
   ["unicode"]=46,
   ["width"]=319,
  },

Is is normal that glyph of ttc-fonts have no name data? If yes how
should one do substituations in such fonts?

you can use the unicode number instead (unless i made a mistake)
