Nope, you're right. It's only used for the log viewer.  If you want to
send a patch that makes it optional, I'll gladly appy it.

Note, we do have an optional pango / cairo  dependency for text rendering.

Sure we could make that optional as well.

Anyway, I have no objection to the changes if you want to look into
making them. If those changes aren't something you want to look into
fixing up, then would you mind filing a bug in freedesktop bugzilla?
