No :-) unlike what its name suggests, the `font-family` property is a family
symbol, not a font string (yes, it's another misnamed thing in font handling).
The `font-family` values recognized by default are `'roman`, `'sans` and
`'typewriter`. Nothing prevents you from doing (in !1888 syntax)
```
\paper {
fonts.roman = "music"
}
```
The practical impact of the change is mostly a syntax modification that is not
easy to convert-ly (the removal of `\text`, which should be replaced with
`\roman`, `\sans` or `\typewriter` depending on the case).
