I agree with everything you mentioned. What I really wanted is to
standartiaze the location (name of directory) AW will look for
locale-specific fonts. So far, I proposed AW to look in the subdirectory named
after encoding name. Also, I've implemented this in my l10n megapatch. What I
wanted to know is whether you agree with my proposal on the name of directory
AW will try to search for fonts in locale-specific encoding.
