Well, I want to avoid adding a new API to use CFRs in applications as far as
possible becausse that will makes a gap among them. just thought that it may be
a good idea if we can use the existing APIs as a frontend and then do the
actual work outside FreeType, rather than wrapping up FreeType's API in
fontconfig or wherever we like.
