I'd put "Sans-Serif" first, so as to re-use fontconfig's default.
Similarly for fixed-pitch (not sure if that's "mono" or "monospace" or

We can already do exactly that with an additional indirection through
face-font-family-alternatives, and indeed that's exactly what we do for
fixed-pitch and variable-pitch.
