We could do that, but can we first try to envision what would be the use case 
for keeping a non-default font backend from the previous session?  If the 
frame's font requires that, the new session will use that same backend anyway.  
I have difficulty imagining any other use case.

IOW, we might be over-engineering here, and just filtering it out should do the 
job.
