I'll package up my build tree as soon as I've got clipping tested, say in 
a couple of hours.  It's very rough code; several shortcuts were used to 
limit the amount of new code I had to write.  In particular, I'm using the 
core font listing code to generate my list of families.  As the X server 
and the Xft library share the same directories of fonts, this actually 
works surprisingly well, as long as the user is careful to choose only
families supported by both systems.  Otherwise, Xft will pick an 
unintended font leaving the system functional, but not precisely what was 
expected.

I don't want to support this myself; the intent was to show you what was 
possible, and show our users so that we'll have a bit more incentive to
getting it running sooner rather than later.

I was frankly surprised at how easy it was to do; my hat is off to the Qt 
team for building readable code.
