Request a little clarification on some Theme Spec details

I've been digging into the theme specification, and there are some missing details that I
haven't been able to resolve through testing - hopefully someone can help me out:

1. The TEXTINFO tag has a font size member, where 0 is auto-scale. If the value is not zero, is this then the font size in points, pixels, or what?

2. The TEXTINFO tag has a shadow offset X, offset Y that, according to the documention, gives an offset based on the "menu background". Presumably this would mean a 720 x 480 pixel size for NTSC menus? Is this offset then interpreted as points or in pixels from the text position?

3. If a theme contains a font name with a special character, such as "!Y2KBUG", it seems that DVDA can't recognize that font. You can, however, choose that font from the DVDA interface.

4. If the theme contains a font name that does not exist on the local system, which font is used?

5. Is this forum the best place to get this kind of information, or is there an email contact that would be better?

Thanks for clearing any of these up for me.
