FB report:

Stylistic sets should provide description text. Programs such as InDesign, TextEdit and Inkscape use that info to display to the users so that they know what a given stylistic set offers.

@mhosken I added some featureNames strings to Busra.feax so that they show up in the UI in LibreOffice and InDesign:

Personally, I'd like to see the names shortened. But what do you think of the names? The documentation should follow whatever they are called within the font.

ss01 Variant forms
ss02 Hooked coengs
ss03 Alternate ka
ss05 Hyphen after ka
ss06 Space after ka
ss07 Alternate muusikatoan placement after -aa and -oo
ss08 Alternate coeng-Nho
ss09 Lower vowels following below coengs
ss18 Alternate samyok sannya and nikahit before -i
ss19 muusikatoan downshift

Didi called ss02 Alternate coeng with 'hair' Would that be the way Cambodians reference it?

Most of these stylistic sets are now gone. The only ones left are ss01, ss02, ss03, and ss08 which has been changed to ss04.
