all I am saying is we need to tease apart the
bug bits from a wishlist. Issue 1 is a bug, issue 2 is
a wishlist. I bet you can not solve issue 1 solely
by bumping the priority of microhei; because if you
do that, Japanese Kanji will be shown in microhei,
and it will be another bug.

I agree that this is likely true for Latin fonts, but for
Chinese, this was not that clear, at least not as many non-CJK
developers thought it was. The only data we have related
to Chinese font preference is the poll at Ubuntu Chinese
forum a few years ago. It showed a 7:3 split for
vector:bitmap preferred users from >300 voters.
True, bitmaps users are minority, but I won't call
30% negligible.
