Oh? Scribus already does kerning based on the tables in font files.

Maybe some kind of optical kerning? But then we'd need a patent-free algorithm how to do that...

Ok, this is either

* already implemented (using font kerning tables),
* a duplicate of 0001680, or
* a wontfix, since we don't have a free algorithm for optical kerning.

Closing.
