Show angle (with a single point) or distance (between two selected points) in status bar
Move cubic control points while forcing "C1 continuity" by holding down the "ALT" key while moving the points.

Allow FontCreator to use more memory, which is needed to open/save large font projects. FontCreator can still run out of memory if it requires a large block of memory but can't find any due to memory fragmentation. A 64 bit version has access to more memory, so that is the future.
Replace glyph member within Glyph Edit window. Select one, and right-click, then click replace...
