Customizable music fonts

I've been using musescore for 2 years and a bit more, and I've used other music notation softwares as well, and in most of them, users can modify the default music fonts with some font creation software, but in musescore that option is not available.

@jojo > My MuseScore 3.7 Evolution has that feature since quite a while...

Does this mean that MuseScore in Ms3.7 users can access any SMuFL font installed as a system resource?

And that the same functionality should arrive in MS4.5?
