        <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>
