What is strange also is that the www.opentype.org web site is a page whose title refers to "Arial Unicode MS". Isn't it a Microsoft font? These things all combined are very intrigating.

Arial is a Monotype face: design, copyright, trademark. Always has been. Arial Unicode MS is one font in the Arial family, made for MS but still Monotype's IP.


Is there a way outside OpenType for other system vendors than Microsoft and Apple? This standard loks more and more proprietary...

It has always been a proprietary font format. It has never been anything but proprietary.
