Yes. We used to have a bug that wouldn't allow this due to it being too
many thousands of packages, but that should be fixed for months IIRC.

This `combine` style with attr-maps is a rather non-standard approach
that I just created somehow for texlive.

Typically we add `-A attr-name` (instead of common names); here one
would have to use `-E expression`. More details are in docs, e.g. `man
nix-env` or in html.

No, I use `-A libertine` all the time. (I've never tried to use it in
*TeX.) But I see your problem with non-latin letters was restricted to
small caps which I don't use and maybe they're not even there.
