That is true .. although I think I have previously been convinced that IAE
is generally the better choice for such a case, I found only deriveFont
that throws IAE for null in this file.
So the question is whether to be consistent or to start picking the
better option.
So if there were no existing IAEs or NPEs in this file, which would you
choose now ?

Hi, Phil.
Should this new method throw IAE? It seems that NPE can be thrown
instead, At least other methods in Font.java including the newly added
createFonts() throw NPE.

Developers have used an internal API to detect when TextLayout or
GlyphVector.layoutGlyphVectorwill be needed since that is a slower path.
This provides a public equivalent capability.
I have included a test which checks the assertions of the API.
A CCC will be filed.
