This is in 1.0 since it's really easy to do with a measure tool and I want to have some features in 1.0 impossible in @fontforge so people get it. Literally just in a loop interpolate a line and use Skia to measure the intersected portion.

I agree this is high priority, I believe beginners really benefit massively from this feature, as they can't yet see letterforms closely enough to gauge what the calipers tool makes more visual.
