Is that necessary?  I think it is reasonable to require the use of
font servers to get this functionality.  I had a quick look at the X
Font Service Protocol, and a client can ask for notification when the
font list changes.  The X server is the client of the font server, and
so can be notified if it wants to.  How the X server in turn notifies
its clients is a separate issue.

(http://www.x-docs.org is a really nice site -- wish I had discovered
it before :-)
