That's a good idea for the small fonts. I considered it myself as a
result of Tamil not working for want of (guessing) a 34K increase in the
size of a 3M installer.

But the Chinese, Japanese and Korean fonts are several MB each, even when
compressed, so I think they will still need separate installers.

Including Greek, Hebrew, Hindi, Tamil and Vietnamese fonts just sounds
like less packages to manage :-)

John.
