Seems like a good idea, but it's harder than it sounds. Here is what I tried: -Load MnSymbol12 in FontForge -Run the script (by Florian, see email from 20. Feb 2011) -Merge in Minion Pro (all of it :D ) -Generate OTF ...but the font (I also renamed it to be sure) does not show up in the output. Instead LM-Math is used. If someone succeeds, please let me know how you did it.

sure, if you cook up the definition for the virtualization (if the encoding is default tex it's no big deal, otherwise some extra tables are needed) ...
the symbols arent the problem, whats difficult is greek because the greek letters are taken from minion pro (the text font) and not from a special math font and this is where it gets tricky
Why not just merge Minion with MnSymbol and create a new font if virtualisation is tricky? Of cause you cannot redistribute the new font but you could distribute a fontforge script which does the merge. This way you could create an OpenType Math font with greek already in the right slots. Maybe also merge with Cronos to get sans math into the font.
