Description
I wonder if runebender can understand what to do when asked to open a metainfo.plist (and maybe for convenience also a fontinfo.plist or .glif file within a UFO)?

Research direction
No implementation file, test, or entry point is named. Start by tracing Runebender's existing file-opening path, then determine how metainfo.plist, fontinfo.plist, and .glif files inside a UFO should resolve to opening the containing UFO; done means each requested file type opens the appropriate UFO reliably.
