I think we have a great chance to iterate from here and get better
font stacks for all our languages. LESS supports configurable
variables after all.
Ah OK. Wouldn't it be better then to implement this when MediaWiki has
sufficient support to discriminate requested languages and serve the
appropriate fontstack accordingly?
Also, most free fonts are Latin-only, and only a few (like Noto) aim for
global support. And all free fonts will have issues on Windows (with
font-smooting disabled). My priority is stil to go with What-Works-Best
for all, and less with Must-Include-Free-Font.
