Well they both are the same font with different names, so only one would have
had to be included. :) And due to the size, i would have only suggested that
the installer include the individual CJK locale version needed.

I think that would be great for users who come libreoffice's website to
download it. I think an even better idea would be that an infobar appears the
first time a CJK user opens libreoffice after an upgrade/install if they dont
have the fonts and suggests a means for them to download it, as many users dont
come to the libreoffice website, including users who have it downloaded within
libreoffice.
