Yep, (A) and (B) is the the stencil-expression.
It's what you get, after uncommenting the lines starting with
(pretty-print (ly:stencil-expr ...
in my example-code.

Agreed, I'll put up a tracker issue.
Some background:
I'm pretty sure I can get the used fonts from (ly:stencil-expr
some-stencil), though this is tedious (I did similar before) and I
hoped ly:stencil-fonts could do the work for me ;)
My goal would be to understand how exatly in/decreased fonts affect
the final stencil and how to get this info out of a given stencil
compared to a default font size.
As an intermediate step, look at the stencil-expression from:
\markup "g"
You'll get:
(translate-stencil
(0.0 . 0.0)
(glyph-string
#<Font_metric (#f . 1.0)>
"TeXGyreSchola-Regular"
3.865234375
#f
'((1.1950157480315
(-0.443862992125984 . 1.09258582677165)
0.0
0.0
"g"))))
I like to understand the numerical values.
The pair (-0.443862992125984 . 1.09258582677165) seems to be the
extent in Y-axis.
But what about 3.865234375 and 1.1950157480315?
Any hints?
Thanks.
Harm
