Idea is good but again it depends on what does the maintainer of fonts-droid thinks about this because this change requires changes to his package. So what do you suggest write to him separately or is he subscribed here?
The package is team-maintained, so strictly speaking there is no individual maintainer for it. There is one person listed as Uploader, who did the initial upload two years ago, then came two team uploads by bubulle and pabs and then another team upload in which the source was updated by someone who is not listed as an Uploader, either.
So, I'd say it's perfectly alright to upgrade the package and chance the packaging if we have found an team-internal consensus, which - I believe - we are making good progress in. Furthermore, I'd say anybody seriously interested in the fonts-droid package is expected to be subscribed to the pkg-fonts team's list anyway (because the team is listed as maintainer). However, I have added Jon Severinsson in CC, because he is the last one who has seriously updated the package.
