hmtx/HVAR

It seems to me that Illustrator is not properly handling metrics in variable fonts. First I though it was about a missing HVAR but even with that it is keeping the metrics of the default layer.
Photoshop handles the same fonts just fine (with the exception of AmstelvarAlpha-VF-2017-01-23, that is not shown in the font menu of Photoshop but works in Illustrator).
(Where would be the best place to report those problems?)

If those fonts don't work properly, then it must be a bug in AI or PS. But if they work, maybe something is missing in the fonts.
