Not true. That's why we still use Arial, Times and web just recently had 
only Arial, Verdana and Tahoma everywhere. And default fonts will be all 
what good generic templates will ever have.

To me it is very important to know whether all LibO installations will 
have the default fonts. So if you know your partner uses LibO you can be 
sure the fonts are available.

Is calling Lao, Thai and Khmer useless meant as an insult?
Although I will probably never have good use for these, I am sure there 
are people who need these. Maybe could extra fonts be added in 
localization packages?
