Lowercase f and interrogation mark (?) overlap a little #518

Defect Report

It happens to Noto Serif, and to a lesser extent to Noto Sans as well. The latest fonts download from the release page here on GitHub. Happens specially in the italics with heavy weight.

    Additionally f + ì also collide. There are a few languages where this pair happens.

    Reminds me of my issue #478 with the letter R.

    Collision isn't necessarily a bug nor a problem. But here the bolder italic could be better.

    Or should I make a separate issue for this?

    No, please don't make any more. As Denis says, overlap is not necessarily a problem.
