Again - please don't forget that not only "it should be done because someone
possibly would ever need it" matters, but also "... and making it possible is
maintainable - i.e. allows testing that it works".

If something is a resource, and its absence breaks functionality, than this is
not optional. Built-in things like font substitution expects to find those
fonts => they are required for correct operation. Unless someone volunteers to
perform complete audit, and also provide extensive set of unit tests to cover
"no fonts" scenario -> WF IMO.

But removing unnecessary fonts already bundled into LO would be great.
