------- Additional Comments from Eric Seidel <eric at webkit.org>
Hum... it seems instead of copying this function to each platform, there should
just be a shared function which platforms can choose to call or not?  I assume
part of this is that you're suggesting that some platforms don't want these
mappings?

Or maybe this should just be a case-ignoring HashMap:

HashMap<AtomicString, AtomicString, CaseFoldingHash>

Then the "default" alternateFamilyName hash can be provided by a private
function on FontCache (in FontCache.cpp) and platforms can provide their own
alternateFamilyName implementation which either does a lookup in this provided
HashMap, or modifies the HashMap, or just does their own lookup disregarding
the HashMap.
