Currently most people use TrueType fonts via fontconfig and thats why
most programs can find their fonts even if the fontpath is
incomplete. However the font server has to include full font path or
else it won't be able to serve all fonts.
Currently dexconf includes the TrueType dir in FontPath. It doesn't
include however the path to the CID fonts and I don't know how
important is this.
