how confusing, how does this compare to other tricks like
Xdefaults or .gtkrc?

This seems a misplaced question, but what the hell, the whole thread is
out of awesome's scope :)
Put simply (as I understand it):
- fonts are rendered via rendering libraries (such as freetype or xft)
- fonts are organized in system-wide collections (managed by fontconfig)
- default rendering options may be stored as fonts' meta information (as
in fonts.conf)
- gtkrc & Xdefaults is a common way to store configuration parameters
for a variety of programs and these parameters may be used to fine-tune
(override) font rendering configuration on per-application basis.
