It doesn't seem so, based on my reading of the docs. If I am right, this means that there is some value in having a cross-platform way of obtaining "user's preferred fixed-width font, including the font size". For example on this machine, I have a "DejaVu Sans 10" as the default font but "Monospace 9", whatever it actually is, as the fixed width font. If I relied on fontconfig, I'd get a 10pt "Monospace" which is too big for my preferences. Am I right here?
