In the short run, for Aleph's purposes, these declarations and much/most/all of the metainfo can be treated as "suggestions" for the otp designer to consider in implementing things. There is no need to treat them as something "holy".
in the near future pdftex will provide open type as well as hooks for input processing using lua, so you may as well end up rewriting your otp's in a more friendly language
