I'll fix Xft to use them; I believe it currently avoids them. Certainly hand-tuned bitmaps are better for non-AA text. And, hand-tuned bitmaps are certainly easier to find than high-quality TrueType fonts, which are needed for decent AA text. For CJK, using bitmaps is even more important; the outlines generate illegible results at moderate sizes.
