wrt. the various fontconfig settings, I think we honour them all by now except
for the ones that are suggested to be added by issue 64508 which adds the
missing subpixel ones. With that in place we call freetype to open the font
exactly the same as e.g. cairo does given the same fontconfig settings.
But even after that one is added we will still not render the same as e.g. cairo
where the subpixel stuff is implemented to achieve the non-grayscale rendering.
To make that happen I suspect we basically need to do the same as pango does,
i.e. figure out the positioning of where we want to put the glyphs, but call
cairo directly to render each glyph for us (i.e. at approximately the
X11SalGraphics::DrawServer*String level) through cairo instead of directly to
XRender, something of that nature would fill in the last piece of this puzzle.
With a bit of luck I might demo something like this up in the coming months.
Finally, of course, a "vanilla" OOo will use its own freetype with whatever
configure time settings were selected, so if the built-in freetype has some
features disabled then it may not function the same as the "system" one, but
that's not relevant to a distro spin but worth mentioning.
