I wonder if we could say something about this in NEWS, where we
announce that Xft is being phased out. Like provide some pointers
where to find the TTF versions of popular bitmapped fonts, including
the ETL ones, or at least the names of such replacement fonts?
Because I'd expect this to be an issue for other users as well, and we
don't want them to disable Cairo just to be able to use those
bitmapped fonts.
