Yup, that's it exactly.
Slighly related, there's a minor problem in that StrikeFonts in Pharo 
assumes a latin-1 fontmap, thus will render a few characters incorrectly 
when the font is really for latin-15 (Like the Bitmap DejaVu included).
I intend to fix this by extending StrikeFonts with a conversion table 
when I have the time, so € (included in latin-15 but not latin-1) and 
friends will actually show correctly on screen. If anyone has an 
alternate approach they feel is better, I'd be happy for some input.

Cheers,
Henry
