This is in no way a bug, but it's one of the things that bothers me about using menlo, so for me it would be a great addition:

In menlo, they made the em dash, the en dash and the regular dash the full character width, which makes it impossible to tell them apart. This is particularly problematic in HTML where you've taken a block of text from somewhere and you need to format it.

It would be spectacularly awesome if you could revert these chars back to the deja-vu version where there was some visual differentiation.

Will look into it when I have some free time. No promises though :)

Theoretically the change shouldn't be a problem, depends on how well I can merge the TT hinting.

+1 on this — I use em dashes in my emails all the time. It would be nice to have a bit of visual differentiation for the dashier characters in this font :)
