  Yes. 50% of the mdk installs I've done in the last 2 years have 2
  things in common:

  a) Dualboot 

  b) Import all windows fonts because "there's no pretty fonts in
  this" (as my gf once said)

  So...3rd party fonts will give *me* (and probably other people that
  help others) a big headache if they crash X :)

  My instinct would be to answer "yes" to this too.
