Bug Description

At 16pt and smaller the glyphs 'S' and '5' in UbuntuBeta Mono become increasingly indistinguishable from each other.

Attached is a screenshot of the sequence "S5S5S5" in both UbuntuBeta Mono and my usual GNOME Terminal font DejaVu Sans Mono. The latter font manages to retain each glyph's distinctiveness at comparable sizes.
