Yes, but...

You'll notice that we don't really have the notion of BOLD -- we only
have a font style.  Our font support is already suboptimal, and I don't
see the problem with adding more suboptimality.

It seems to me the viewer already needs font-untangling code, and this
would be a relatively minor change to it.
