I am also curious as to why it always selects the same font for a
given WWS. I tried to find the request with FC_DEBUG 4 & 7 but I get
80MB logs and I could not understand what was going on. What should I
look for?

I should have mentioned that the weight in Qt is between 0 and 99 and
50 corresponds (correctly) to 80 in fontconfig. How do I figure out
what is the original request using FC_DEBUG 4 or 7?</pre>
