Just one issue that might come up later. I would be grateful if you'd
also think about ways to customize AA per font and/or face along the
way; provided that this is feasible at all.
AA may look good, but it also makes the characters look blurry which
can be a source of headaches for some people who are sensitive to
this. OTOH, some free scalable m17n fonts lack hinting, so they are
basically unusable on a computer screen withouth AA. Being able to
enable AA partially per font or face would get us the best of both
worlds.
