You optical corrections might be valid, however none of the other
glyphs in the Feta font have this.  Additionally, I believe it's
optically neglegible.

Basically, I just took the code from the slashed note head.

If you can provide images which demonstrate exactly what you mean, we
can easily think about ways to improve that in the font -- provided it
