        There are no plans, that I am aware of, for adding ANY UI to FT.

        We already have platform-centric calls (ftmac.c, ftwin.c, etc.) 
which include support for reading platform installed fonts.  It is 
transparent to the clients, since it happens inside of "overridden" 
versions of FT_New_Face().
