--- Comment #9 from Michael Catanzaro <mcatanzaro at igalia.com> ---
After much discussion with Behdad and Martin (who is still not completely convinced I think :) I want to merge cairo font options into the Fontconfig pattern used for rendering using cairo_ft_font_options_substitute(). This is how the API was designed to be used anyway. Fontconfig will still have final say over whether to actually respect the desktop settings or not, so it can still choose to ignore the desktop's settings, but I don't think it makes sense to have desktop-wide font settings and not tell Fontconfig about them, especially when the whole point of WebKitGTK+ is desktop integration. This should also reduce complaints that we're not following desktop settings and that we're drawing fonts differently than Firefox.
