Thanks!  Do you already have a patch for hb-view?

Right now, I want to be able to make hb-view use the TrueType bytecode
engine.  But I agree that controlling the rendering process itself
would be very helpful, too.

I presume that you are talking about the FreeType backend, right?
Most interesting would be to have a possibility to select the
rendering options on MS Windows, e.g., selecting ClearType...
