Of course TeX does. My question was about the following situation.
Suppose we have a ttf font which contains kerning pairs
between some symbols belonging to different scripts (for example,
Cyrillic and Greek). It sounds strange, but sometimes it is useful.

Suppose that we have created from this font some smaller files, each
of them contains only 256 characters. How can we preserve kerning
between two symbols which now belong not only to different scripts, but
also to different font files? That's why breaking to smaller files
doesn't look for me as a good solution.
