We have never distributed fonts with Emacs before, and we've already doubled its size for the next major release by including leim and the elisp docs in the main distribution. It is not sufficient to distribute the fonts with Emacs anyway, they have to be installed in the font-path, and I'm not sure we can find a way to do that on all systems (the font server may be on another machine for example).
