All Adobe PostScript fonts include both oe and ISOLatin1 - though not
at the same time, since there is no standard Encoding containing both.
PostScript fonts do not typically contain multiple spaces with
different widths - spacing is done by the PostScript program, not by
font choice.

I think you should not be disappointed with fonts, but with the tools
you are using for layout. Things like non-breaking spaces, special
space widths etc. belong in there - not by special font techniques.
