Recently, I generated a font that has numerous style sets. I never really noticed before that I could give them human-readable names in the Font Info > Styleset Names dialog box, but I thought I'd take the opportunity to do that this time. However, after doing that and generating an OpenType (CFF) font, upon re-opening the OTF in FF, I get an error popup that says there are multiple entries for the "Copyright" entry of the TTF "name" table. In fact, all of the style set names were assigned to this field, so FF repeatedly asks me to pick one until there are no more conflicts. Then the rest of the font loads successfully. I couldn't see anywhere this was reported already. Is this a known bug? I can live without doing this, of course, but it also would be nice to have it.
