IOW, we are trying to solve a much harder > problem. You can have arbitrary fonts in web browsers too, but it's true that they are generally much less customizable (for the user) than Emacs. They also usually don't have a block cursor to edit it all with, so they get away with things that we might consider imperfections, such as uneven line heights. We might be veering off too far from the issue at hand though. Sorry about that.
