Er...
Apple's 'kern' also supports kerning by classes (which opentype
documents but does not support, as I recall), and kerning by state
machine which is no really a subset of GPOS.
Even the simple kern table MS supports can do rather more complicated
things that the one dimensional kerning we typically think of.
