Dealing with different character map formats when mapping glyph indicies to character codes

I was looking into how freetype maps character codes to glyph indices, and learned that there are many different formats the character map can be in, not to mention the one-to-many and many-to-one mappings that Werner mentioned.
Will it be necessary to implement the reverse mapping separately for every cmap format?
