One more thing is, current @fonts group has minimal sets of the
packages only
according to
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageMaintainers/CompsXml#Fonts
basically. so the language group may has some fonts packages to replace the
_distribution-wide default fonts_ with the preferable typefaces.
In what cases does it do this? My reading of the fonts groups were that it
only ever installed additional fonts that were options to the defaults, not
new defaults. (Especially since most any desktop user who installed a
langsupport group had @fonts installed anyway.)
if we also change the policy of "one font per scripts" to
the "one font per
languages" or so, it may affects to the disk size after the installation or iso
size for Live and/or some spins perhaps.
I'm willing to test to see how much space increase this causes - I think
we're OK with both KDE and GNOME, unsure about XFCE/LXDE.

iok is required by ibus-m17n; is that expected to change?
