I believe these font substitutes can be requested using GDI (CreateFontIndirect), but not using DirectWrite. So far we aren't using GDI, which can be important for sandboxed apps because GDI is in the kernel and DirectWrite is in userland.

What would you prefer we do here?

Maybe parsing the registry will be enough? I'm not sure if GDI does any kind of preprocessing.

IIRC, GDI does sanity checking on the values (because it'll use a fallback if the defined substitute isn't present) and I think recursive substitution if required, but nothing more than that.
