This solution sounds interesting, but it it's still a workaround. It would lead
to some issues when collaboratively editing a document -- one would have to
explain this required configuration change, which would have the side-effect of
changing other documents that colleagues might be working on.

Also, my preferred font for Math is Liberation Serif, but it is missing some
symbols such as %varphi, so would prefer to still be able to acess OpenSymbol
(but indeed, I could use STYX etc instead)
