<pre>Right now we recognize sans-serif, serif, monospace, fantasy, and cursive but
user has to know that. Would be nice to allow defining those formally, and let
user define more.
That would be useful for a font-manager kind of scenario, where one can define
new virtual families and add multiple fonts as a stack to it.
The latter can be done using existing configuration facilities (mostly), so the
part missing is just making it appear in FcFontList() output.
No idea what the config / API for this should look like.</pre>
